FOOD lovers across Wales and England are being urged to use public transport to get to one of Britain’s top food festivals.

Between Monday 9 June and Friday 13 June, major engineering work will be taking place between Cardiff Central and Newport.

Seventy percent of all Transport for Wales services will be operated on new trains following timetable changes this May.

Transport for Wales (TfW) is continuing to deliver the transformation of the Cardiff Bay line, with the development of a new two-platform station in northern Butetown and the redevelopment of Cardiff Bay station.

Brand-new electric tram-trains are now being tested on the recently electrified Valleys railway lines, as TfW take another step forward with delivering the next phase of the South Wales Metro.

Transport for Wales is excited to announce that the Rhymney valley railway line will undergo major enhancements as part of the next phase of the South Wales Metro.  

Proposals to make major sustainable travel improvements in Newport city centre have been progressed. 

Brand new images show what Cardiff Central could look like after an investment programme of up to £140 million to enhance the station.

A major rail timetable change will see train times change significantly in December, allowing for increased services at some stations, later services from Cardiff Central and Swansea, trains leaving at the same time past each hour and more new trains. 

Contactless tap in, tap out ‘Pay As You Go’ rail payment option has now been extended to the Maesteg line (from Mon 30th Sept).

One of the key rail routes between Wales and England has seen 60,000 extra passenger journeys made and a 27% increase in trains arriving on time over the last year.

Runners competing in the Cardiff Half Marathon this October will be able to catch the train in for the start for the first time ever.
