EXTRA BUSES FOR GOWER VISITORS!

As Gower prepares for a busy summer influx of visitors, sustainable transport partnership BayTrans is stepping in to provide greater travel choice by financially supporting key bus service improvements. To encourage visitors to stay longer in south Gower and travel back without any drink driving worries, an extra bus will leave Rhossili at 2035 on weekdays to Port Eynon, Horton, Oxwich and Swansea.

On Fridays, south Gower visitors will have a direct bus to Mumbles; and Mumbles visitors, two direct buses to south Gower. John Davies, Project Officer for BayTrans added “this is an important step forward in our promotion of more car-free travel to and within Gower and we are grateful for funding from the Countryside Council for Wales and City & County of Swansea which makes this possible”

The new services start week commencing 19th July More information from 01792 205071 or 07967 389329

Notes:
The additional weekday service from south Gower will enable journey opportunities to and between Rhossili, Port Eynon, Horton, Reynoldston, Oxwich and Parkmill; and to Swansea. It operates Mondays to Saturdays from 19th July to 4th September.

The Fridays’ service will have three round trips between Mumbles, Pennard, Oxwich Bay, Port Eynon and Rhossili and operates from Friday 23rd July to 3rd September inclusive. Both services will be operated by Veolia Transport Cymru
