New coach between the north and the south of Wales will cut journey times by over an hour

Deputy Transport Minister, Mark Hooper

People across Wales will save over an hour on journey times between the north and the south of Wales when a new long-distance coach launches this autumn.

The new coach service will operate regular services every day linking Bangor to Carmarthen to transform connectivity across the country and improve access to jobs, healthcare, education, businesses, and leisure. It is also expected to support improved access for visitors to Wales.

The service will stop at Bangor Rail Station, Caernarfon, Porthmadog Rail Station, Dolgellau (Eldon Square), Machynlleth, Aberystwyth University, Aberystwyth Bus Station, Aberaeron and Carmarthen Rail Station.

As well as improving connectivity the service will also open-up sustainable tourism to destinations, including Eryri National Park, the Llŷn Peninsula and Cardigan Bay, and supports Wales' transition to a greener economy by providing a low-carbon alternative to the car.

Transport for Wales will use the coming months to develop the service in line with the wider ‘T Network’ – an integrated transport network for Wales.
