4日，广州汽车客运站（流花车站）（下简称市汽车站）发布信息称，计划于2020年4月1日起停止班车发班。也就是说，1985年成立的市汽车站历经35载后即将关停。
市汽车站成立于1985年,位于广州市越秀区环市西路158号，到今天已走过35个年头。2004年,车站进行了一番改造,并建成了面积达4万平方米的国家一级公路客运站场,有效地缓解了流花地区的交通压力，客运服务、设施设备、安全管理等方面全面提升，改变了当时广州市公路客运站场的落后面貌。
4日下午，记者在现场看到，在高铁等交通工具的冲击下、本来大幅减少的公路客运客流受疫情影响更显寥寥。因为旅客人数较少，候车厅略显空旷，正在检票的检票口也只有十几人在排队。受疫情影响，售票厅现在市站日均发送客流约在1500人次，疫情发生前平日的日均客流在5000人次左右，而十几年前市汽车站曾创下单日发送旅客17万人次的全国纪录。
据介绍，目前市汽车站主要营运涉及珠三角、粤东、粤西、粤北等省内地区线路以及海南、广西等省际线路；日常情况下，每日营运线路约在120条；受疫情影响，根据不同城市不同防控举措，部分班线临时停运。刚乘火车从河南周口抵达广州、准备在市汽车站乘车去往佛山的张先生告诉记者，自己每年春节假期结束都这样搭车返岗工作：“在公众号看到市汽车站即将关停的消息，感觉有点可惜，因为下了火车就可以来换乘客车，还是很方便的”。张先生说，车站关停后，以后过年回来如何返岗还没有考虑过。陈小姐也刚下火车来市汽车站转乘汽车前往虎门：“第一次来乘车，常在这坐车的老乡带我来的。”何小姐说，还不知道车站即将关停的消息。
记者看到，在售票厅通往候车室的连廊处、刚一通过测体温检测入口的旁边，张贴有“关于广州汽车客运站（流花车站）停止班车发班的公告”，同时，广州市站微信公众号也发布了此条消息。
据悉，市汽车站关停原因是根据《广州市城市建设第十三个五年规划》以及广州交通运输局要求,为减轻公路客运通行对中心城区的影响；此外，随着近年来各种交通运输服务方式不断发展完善，市民乘坐公路客运班车长途出行的需求持续下降，市汽车站旅客发送量大幅降低，经营存在困难，计划申请歇业。届时市汽车站原有线路将调整至滘口、芳村等市内其他客运站场发班。
市汽车站安全服务部经理李娜已在这里工作了15个年头，从刚刚入职时担任过售票员、检票员再到现在成为安全服务部的负责人，可以说李娜就在市汽车站成长起来。她见过市汽车站的“辉煌鼎盛”，也感受到公路客运受到冲击后的无奈，市汽车站即将关停，李娜十分不舍：“这里有很多回忆”。每年春运都是一次大考，无论遇到什么情况，李娜都坚守在一线岗位上：“毕竟我们是交通人，也要做有责任的交通人”。距离市汽车站关停还有不到一个月的时间，车站关停之前，后续还有如结算等工作需要完成：“我们会站岗站到最后一天。”李娜说。
Officials announced on March 4 that the Passenger Transport Station of Guangzhou (广州汽车客运站流花车站) is scheduled to stop its regular bus services from April 1. All regular bus lines will be transferred to other passenger stations in the city.
Built in 1985, the station, located at No. 158 Huanshi Xilu in Yuexiu district, has offered bus services to all cities in Guangdong province, as well as certain cities in Hunan, Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangxi and Zhejiang provinces.
The station has seen a stark drop in passenger volume in recent years, with 79.79 million passengers in 2014, 71.37 million in 2015, 68.74 million in 2016, 58.6 million in 2017 and 52 million in 2018. The decline is mainly due to the rapid development of the region's railway network, with subways, high-speed rails and intercity railways expanding. Passengers nowadays also prefer private cars, customized buses and online car-hailing services rather than coaches, bringing great financial pressure to traditional bus stations.
The Guangzhou Municipal Transportation Bureau said other coach stations in downtown Guangzhou will be relocated or integrated with stations in the outskirts, to connect railway stations outside the city center and provide seamless connectivity for passengers.
Among the many coach stations in the city, Yuexiu Passenger Station, Huangpu Coach Station and Yongtai Bus Station were closed in 2019.
