Bus services to be brought back into public control

Bus Stop / Safle Bws

A Bill to reform bus services in Wales has been passed by the Senedd, putting Wales at the forefront of improving bus services in the UK.

Working closely with local authorities, Corporate Joint Committees, bus operators, unions, and the public, the Welsh Government and Transport for Wales will use local knowledge to design and plan services that puts the voice of the passenger at the heart of their local bus network.

The Bill aims to provide reliable, safe, and affordable transport for all communities, tackling isolation and reducing transport emissions, to offer all passengers one network, one timetable, one ticket across Wales.

This legislation is a major step towards creating a fairer, greener, and more connected Wales. It lays the foundations for a modern, integrated transport system with simpler timetables to meet the needs of passengers today and for generations to come.

The roll out is intended to begin in South West Wales in 2027, before North Wales in 2028, South East Wales in 2029 and Mid Wales in 2030.
