Cymru Coastliner CC12
New express summer coach service for North Wales
Leading bus operator Arriva launches the Cymru Coastliner: a new express summer coach service for North Wales
Arriva is bringing the North Wales coast within easy reach with the launch of a new express coach service, just in time for the summer holidays.
The Cymru Coastliner will run from 22 June to 25 August and will connect Rhyl and Llandudno in under one hour.
Route CC12 will serve popular coastal hotspots including Kinmel Bay, Towyn, Abergele, Colwyn Bay and Rhos-on-Sea.
The service offers a comfortable and convenient way to travel between some of the region’s best-loved seaside destinations.
Operating hourly, seven days a week, the Cymru Coastliner’s air-conditioned coaches will provide a hassle-free way to travel the network.
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.”
Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales Ken Skates said: “It’s great to see this new service running along this popular route during the summer months. It is sure to benefit both residents and visitors alike.”
