We also have a text message service available, where you can get the times of your next bus sent directly to your phone via text message. Here’s how!

Step 1:
Find the code of the bus stop which you are travelling from. Each bus stop has its own unique 7 letter code located on the bus stop stand.

Step 2:
Text the bus stop code to our Traveline text number 84268.*
If you want to receive a reply in Welsh, add a space then the letter C to the end of the bus stop code.
To revert to English, add a space then the letter E to the end of the bus stop code.

Step 3:
You will then receive a free* text message reply within 30 seconds showing:

  • The times of up to the next three buses due at that particular stop
  • The service number of each bus
  • The destination of each bus

* 84268 is a non-standard number which may cost more than a standard text and may not be included in any tariff bundles. Please check with your mobile operator.
* Your reply will be free to receive, providing the bus stops in question are located in Wales. For bus stops outside of Wales, you will be charged £0.25 to receive the reply.
