When she sees the old guy get on the bus that wasn't supposed to be running anymore, and then gets on the bus herself and rides away at the very end.

Now, I got way too much training at figuring out "symbolism" back in my days watching 50s- and 60s-era foreign films, but the only thing I could think of was that the ending meant that she had taken her own life, and that the bus she was getting on represented death, riding off to a place the audience could no longer see.
