Abstract This study aims to enhance the soundscape for bus stations by supplying suitable sound sources for the features of spaces inside or outside of bus stations. Sound sources are comprised of four artificial and five natural sounds, which are used for psycho-acoustic experiments. For the experiment, evaluation on both background noise in several places of bus stations and supplied sounds in the same places was performed using adjectives. Environmental music among nine sound sources got a highest point and is considered to be effective for the soundscape of bus stations. Whereas the broadcasting news got a lowest point. These results could show effective way to supply sounds to bus stations.
