Jane Reakes-Davies, Managing Director for First Cymru said:“It is an exciting time for everyone at First as we launch these new leisure services starting this Spring Bank Holiday weekend.
“The open-top routes will give many people a new opportunity to have a great day out and experience the Swansea Bay and Porthcawl coastline from a different perspective, with beautiful views on the top deck. The services will also attract day visitors to the area and provide a much-needed boost to the local economy.”
