Major City Centre Events

During large events at the Principality Stadium, surrounding roads will close and buses will use different city centre bus stops.

The table below shows where each service will normally start and end when a full city centre closure is in place (i.e. Westgate Street, Wood Street, Havelock Street, St Mary Street, Castle Street and Duke Street are closed to traffic). Some exceptions may occur, particularly as the closures are implemented or when different streets are closed to traffic. For both Speedway and Cardiff 10k, these are not full closures and so different diversion routes will be in operation.

Please always check the timetables once they become available for information specific to your journey.
