Jyväskylä is the first of the Finnish cities where the "Travel Centre" project was realized, combining all public transport under one roof. It stemmed from an invited architectural competition that took place in 1995-96. The terminal consists of four parts: the main rounded building made of exposed brick with a massive overhanging roof housing a waiting hall and a restaurant; a glass steel structure for the footbridge and roof covering the platforms; an administrative high-rise building; and a multi-story parking facility. In the main terminal, visual bricks, corten, and plywood are utilized. The parking facility is clad in slightly tinted glass, and the administrative building is covered with corten and plywood.
