The Lismore City Council has closed the waiting room facility at the Transit Centre on the corner of Molesworth and Magellan streets.
The council says the move comes after a joint assessment with police and local bus service providers and in response to ongoing concerns about unsafe and disruptive behaviour by a small number of individuals.
The public toilets at the site are to stay open and accessible for travellers.
Lismore City Council Acting Chief Operating and Financial Officer Matt Potter says the Transit Centre site is to be included in concept planning for the Lismore CBD Precinct.
Mr Potter says the area around the site is to be redesigned as part of broader plans to revitalise and improve the city centre to start in coming months.
Planning is to include community engagement.
