South & West Wales - De a Gorllewin Cymru

Welcome to the First Cymru website. I hope you will enjoy using the site and find the information you want.

In Swansea the ftrMetro route is now fully operational with services running between Morriston and Singleton Hospital every 12 minutes on Monday to Friday and every 15 minutes on Saturdays. The reaction of those who have used the service so far has been very positive. So, if you’ve yet to sample the covenience of this cross-city service with its priority measures and smart new vehicles, why not give it a try very soon?

At this time of the year we make a point of welcoming new students to the area, particularly to Swansea University and Swansea Metropolitan University. Our local bus services offer the best way to explore the surroundings of your new 'home'; you will find our student tickets exceptional value for money. More good news is that our summer service to South Gower (X18) will continue at weekends beyond the original cut off date in early October; it will now run until 6th December, but look out for a further announcement in the New Year.

Christmas is now not too far away and our Shopping Specials to popular destinations will soon be advertised; full details will be available on this site shortly. Meanwhile, developments at Cardiff mean that the new John Lewis store is now open, with the massive St. Davids 2 centre due for completion this autumn. As ever, the best way to get there is by our fast 'Shuttle100' motorway coach service - and if you fancy staying later in Cardiff, you can now return by train with First Great Western on the same ticket.

All you need to do is sit back and relax and let us do the driving!
