SWansea travel

Post by jaymitch81 »

I see the day we play Swansea there is a bus service from Port Talbot-Swansea making going by train a nightmare.

Anyone found a clearer/quicker route?

Cheers

No clearer or much quicker route but there is a local bus that stops at port talbot parkway station the X1 that gets you into Swansea in 30 minutes and goes direct to Swansea along the coast road unlike the rail replacement bus that will head inland to Neath first and then on to Swansea
but coming back a cab from the liberty stadium to port talbot station will cost about £20 and get you on a earlier train back to London

1st season we played Swansea after they got promoted, there was a rail replacement Cardiff to Swansea.

On the way back the rail replacement was direct from the Liberty to Cardiff.
