First Cymru cancels more than 80 bus routes in Swansea

One of Swansea's most-used transport providers, First Cymru, has cancelled multiple routes on Tuesday. The bus company said it's been experiencing "operational difficulties" and had been affected by a shortage in drivers.

Among the cancelled services, First Cymru service 9 is no longer running between Swansea University/Campus and the Student Village at 1.15pm, 1.42pm, 2.30pm, 3.12pm, 4pm, 4.42pm. Plus, the number 16 service between Swansea and Gorseinon and the number 110 and 111 services between Swansea and Llanelli have had multiple routes cancelled, as has the X13 Swansea to Ammanford and Ammanford to Swansea. Scroll down for a full list of cancelled services.

First Cymru took to social media to confirm many of its services have had to be cancelled. In a series of service updates on Twitter, the bus firm said: "Due to operational difficulty the following services have been cancelled today... We are sorry for any inconvenience caused" and lists the 80+ services that have been cancelled today. It comes after the firm cancelled multiple routes on Monday.
