Hywel Dda Tickets

We’ve teamed up with Hywel Dda University Health Board (UHB) to offer discounted fares for health board staff when they travel to work by bus. We’ve done this to make it easier for them to travel more sustainably and reduce pressure on busy hospital car parks.

 

I work for Hywel Dda UHB. Which services can I get discounted fares for?

The TrawsCymru T1, T1A, T1X and T2 and T28.

You can buy discounted fares for the T1 service (operated for us by First Cymru), between Carmarthen and Aberystwyth town centres via Glangwili Hospital and the T2 and T28 services between Aberystwyth town centre and Bronglais Hospital.

 

How much could I save?

You could save between 20% and 36% saving depending on the type of fare you buy.

 

How do I buy a discounted fare?

You can buy it from the bus driver by showing your NHS staff photo identification.

You can also buy it in advance using the TrawsCymru app, store it on your smartphone and show it to the bus driver.  First, you’ll need to download the app and create an account.
