By Bus

Warsaw's main bus station, Dworzec PKS Zachodni, 10 minutes from Central Station on Bus 127 or 130, serves most long-distance routes, both domestic and international. Domestic buses headed east leave from Dworzec PKS Stadion on the east bank of the Vistula. The private long-distance bus service Polski Express, which goes to most major destinations within Poland, arrives and departs from Jana Pawla II Station, between Central Station and the Holiday Inn. Polski Express also has a stop at the airport.

Lódz central bus station (Dworzec Centralny PKS) is connected to the Lódz Fabryczna train station; it's also within a 15-minute walk of Piotrkowska Street. Both regular buses and Polski Express buses stop there. The north bus terminal (Dworzec Pólnocny) is approximately 1 km from the city center (tram number 5 will take you to the town center) and is served by regular buses only.
