Helping plan your journey
It’s important to think early on about how you will get to and from your hospital appointment. To help plan your journey, here are some options for accessing our hospitals:
Traveline Cymru
Traveline Cymru is a public transport information service funded by the Welsh Government. The service provides public transport information across Wales for bus, coach and train, as well as walking and cycling routes.
It’s worth remembering local buses are wheelchair and pushchair accessible and have dedicated spaces onboard each bus to accommodate passengers in wheelchairs.
The purpose is to offer a 'one-stop-shop' for travel information, where you can find all the journey information you’ll need in one place, in a few simple steps.
You can call the bi-lingual Contact Centre on the freephone number 0800 464 0000 with any journey planning queries you may have. The contact centre is available between 7am – 8pm daily, throughout the year.
