Bus Service Changes - Rhondda Cynon Taf - November 2014
A number of changes to the bus services that are financially supported by the Council are being made in response to the reduction in the local
government funding. The Council has sought to protect as many services as possible but has had to withdraw support from a number of routes. At
the same time, some operators have increased their commercial services.
The service changes are shown below and take place on 2 November 2014. For further information about planning your journey, please contact
