It was reported in the Autumn that it would be 2021 however I wouldn't hold my breath on that due to the fact it should have opened last year!

Sad to say it's been an embarrassment to the City. Political wranglings, plans and needs constantly changed and of course there is the question is a bus station even needed.

If circular routes are the norm and Minibuses are used to move drivers around a Terminus becomes redundant. Plus the City is so clogged up nothing even moves anymore. Well apart from cyclists!

I have had my trusty WAG Bus Pass for maybe 6 years now. Used it once and that was to get back from the garage when my car went in for service. I could have walked it quicker.

When we where there last time they where talking a bout a new shopping centre. I was thinking do Cardiff really need it . We decided when we come to Cardiff in September it be better by train partner got a disabled pass so we both get some off the full prices . I was thinking that where all the work they RIP the heart outthe city the same as they did to Norwi h

Ha ha. I knew the owner well.

OP. You are spot on. City Centres have died on their feet sadly.

I didn't even think they were building a new station...I thought they just had bus stops dotted around the city !

I suppose it's because I only ever drive in or catch the train ... and yes city centres are on the decline ... Don't get me started on Newport !
