West Transfer Center is a bus-only station bounded by Lamar, San Jacinto, Griffin and Pacific streets, near West End station in Dallas, Texas. It is one of two Downtown Dallas transfer centers owned by DART in the Central Business District (CBD). Most of the buses and light rail lines serve West End, The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, El Centro College, Dallas World Aquarium, as well as the American Airlines Center.

Under DART's naming policy, transfer centers are facilities similar to a transit center but without park-and-ride lot. Both transfer centers and transit centers are locations that facilitate transfers among routes and includes amenities such as a climate-controlled waiting area.

The main portion of the West Transfer Center is located north of the DART light rail tracks and has 13 bus stands (also known as bus bays) laid out in a circle, lettered A through M. There is a climate-controlled waiting area in the middle of the bus stands.

South of the DART light rail tracks is Rosa Parks Plaza, located at the corner of Lamar and Elm streets. This plaza has three bus stands, the two along Lamar Street are lettered N and O, while the stand along Elm Street is not lettered.
