Engineering work is taking place between Cardiff Queen Street and Abercynon, closing all lines.

As a result hourly buses will replace trains between:

• Cardiff Central and Treherbert
• Cardiff Central and Aberdare 
• Cardiff Central and Merythr Tydfil

Additional bus services will also be running between Ponypridd and Treherbert due to major engineering work between Pontypridd and Treherbert.

If you are travelling between Cardiff Central and Radyr via Fairwater you should use Cardiff Bus services to complete your journey at no extra cost.
