Transport for Wales (TfW) welcomes fans back to the capital for what is set to be another extraordinary year of high-profile events and is working with industry partners to ensure all fans get to and from the game safely.
To support the thousands of supporters heading to the stadium, TfW will be providing additional capacity where possible on key routes across the network. Passengers are encouraged to plan ahead, check before they travel, and allow plenty of time for their journeys, as engineering work may impact some lines.
TfW reminds all passengers to treat our staff and volunteers with respect. Our teams are working hard alongside industry partners to keep everyone moving safely, and verbal abuse or any form of antisocial behaviour will not be tolerated.
Marie Daly, Chief Operating Officer at Transport for Wales said: “We look forward to welcoming fans to the six nations. We are working closely with our partners across the rail industry to get fans to and from the game safely.
“We want everyone to enjoy the game day experience, and we ask that passengers help us achieve that by planning ahead, checking their journeys, and travelling with patience and kindness."
A full queuing system will be in place for the first two home fixtures, Wales v France (Sunday 15 February) and Wales v Scotland (Saturday 21 February). Queues for mainline rail services will operate on Central Square, while queues for Valleys services will be located to the rear of the station.
For these first two fixtures, Cardiff Queen Street station will be closed, with access available only for passengers requiring accessible travel and those travelling to Cardiff Bay. Cardiff Bus Interchange will also be closed in line with local road closures.
Details for the final fixture against Italy on 14 March will be available soon as TfW continues to coordinate plans.
