A braking force control apparatus adapted to vary the level of a braking force generated on the basis of a brake operating condition and in accordance with a braking operation, and control a suitable braking force meeting a driver's intention. A braking force control apparatus for practicing a regular control operation in which a braking force corresponding to a brake pedal stepping force is generated, and a brake assisting control operation in which a braking force larger than that in a regular control operation is generated. In this braking force control apparatus, a stroke sensor (299) detecting a stroke amount (L) of a brake pedal (202) judges that a driver intends to discontinue a braking operation when a stroke amount (L) of a brake pedal (202) detected a predetermined period of time (TST) after a regular control operation was changed to a brake assisting control operation is not higher than a predetermined level alpha , and the brake assisting control operation is finished.
