Wales: New sustainable tourism project launched

10 March 2022/Categories: Rail, Net-Zero


A new tourism project called ‘Wales on Rails’ has been launched to encourage more people to travel around Wales sustainably using the national rail network, heritage railways and buses.

Transport for Wales’s Community Rail Partnerships and Visit Wales have jointly funded the new initiative that promotes the use of public transport to link key tourist attractions and offers visitors the chance to experience some of the most scenic rail networks in the world.

 

Vaughan Gething, Minister for the Economy, said:

“This is an excellent partnership which encourages safe, sustainable, and scenic adventures around Wales and showcases the wealth of experiences that are accessible by public transport.   This new initiative makes it easier for people to plan their trips – while also using sustainable modes of transport.”

James Price, Transport for Wales CEO, added:

“’Wales on Rails’ brings together our Wales and Borders rail network, 12 heritage and steam railways, and our bus routes, offering people the chance to use this sustainable transport network to travel around the country to a range of tourist attractions.”
