The fflecsi bus service has been running since June 2021 operated by Stagecoach and Transport for Wales (TFW) on behalf of Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council.

This pilot project trialled a new approach to bus services to enable residents to get to work, education, attend appointments, connect with other public transport, socialise and shop from early in the morning until late in the evening.

Following feedback from residents and customers during the pilot, the council are introducing some changes to the service from today (Monday 3 July 2023).

The fflecsi service will continue to operate from 5.30am until 9.15am in the morning and between 17.45pm and 23.00pm during the evening. Bookings are still being taken in the usual way using the app or calling the team team on 0300 234 0300.

A new timetabled service will operate from 9.24am to 17.45pm during the day and there will be no need to make a booking in advance, you can pick up the bus at your nearest stop.
