Demolition work at the former Exeter Bus Station site is nearing completion after the buildings were flattened and reduced to rubble.
Contractor Wring Group began work at the site in the city centre in February.
Asbestos was first removed from the former station in Bampfylde Street, which first opened to the public in 1964, before the buildings were knocked down and the site made secure.
The demolished brickwork has been crushed and reduced to rubble on site. It has been used to fill in the large drop between the lower and upper aprons.
Temporary uses for the space are being considered once work on site is complete. In the longer term the area is expected to be redeveloped with new buildings and uses.
The former bus station, which was replaced by a new Exeter Bus Station funded by the City Council in July 2021, has been a well-known Exeter landmark for 60 years.
It opened on 5 July 1964, replacing an earlier bus station on Paul Street, which became a car park.
