Early Day Motion 485

Direct bus service between mid-Wales and Cardiff

Tabled 29 June 2026 by David Chadwick

That this House recognises the importance of reliable public transport in connecting rural communities with employment, education, healthcare, and essential services; notes with concern the removal of the direct T4 bus service between Mid Wales and Cardiff, requiring passengers to change in Merthyr Tydfil; believes this has made journeys longer, less convenient and less accessible, particularly for older people, disabled passengers, and those travelling with young children or luggage; further recognises the importance of direct transport links to Cardiff for access to specialist NHS services, higher education, employment, and national institutions; and calls on the Welsh Government and Transport for Wales to reinstate a direct T4 bus service between Mid Wales and Cardiff.
