Arriva launching new Cymru Coastliner

Arriva is launching a new express coach service between Rhyl and Llandudno.

The Cymru Coastliner will run from 22 June to 25 August and will connect the seaside towns in under one hour. Route CC12 will serve popular coastal hotspots including Kinmel Bay, Towyn, Abergele, Colwyn Bay and Rhos-on-Sea.

The coaches will operate hourly, seven days a week, using air-conditioned coaches.

Fares are £8 for an adult day ticket, £5.30 for children, £16 for families (two adults, three children) and £20 for groups of up to five adults.

“It’s just one example of how we’re looking to grow the network – offering people a genuine alternative to the car” – Adam Marshall, head of commercial for Arriva Cymru

Adam Marshall, head of commercial for Arriva Cymru, said: “This is a fantastic addition to our network for the summer, connecting communities and attractions across the North Wales coast.

“We’re really proud of what we’ve created for our customers with the Cymru Coastliner and we’re looking forward to welcoming them on board.

“It’s just one example of how we’re looking to grow the network – offering people a genuine alternative to the car, which will help ease congestion and support sustainable travel choices in North Wales.

“We’ve done all we can to make it as easy as possible for our customers to choose public transport, whether they’re planning a beach day, organising a family trip or visiting some great seaside towns.”
