Victoria St in the Toowoomba CBD has been closed to traffic after a bus broke down.
The bus came to an abrupt stop after a passenger reported seeing smoke coming from its engine about 12.30pm on Sunday.
The passengers poured out of the vehicle and started assisting with directing traffic while the driver phoned triple-0.
Two Queensland Fire Department crews arrived and made the scene safe.
It is understood the smoke was the result of a mechanical fault.
Drivers are advised to avoid the area until a mechanic can fix the issue.
Meanwhile, four Queensland Rural Fire Service crews have been called to a large grass fire burning off the Gore Highway at Pittsworth.
The fire is about 500sq m in size and the crews are working to bring it under control.
