Johor Bahru Sentral railway station is a Malaysian inter-city train station in Johor, similar to KL Sentral in Kuala Lumpur. It is the successor to the closed Johor Bahru railway station. The total area of JB Sentral will be 79,000 square metres, almost twice as large as KL Sentral (42,000 sqm). It opened on 21 October 2010 and will house a bus station, which occupies an area of 9500 square metres. The bus station is expected to handle approximately 15,000 bus passengers per hour, to reduce traffic congestion at the 20 year-old Larkin Terminal Station. There will be 2,000 parking spaces.
