WREXHAM Council is urging the county's residents to check Arriva's bus timetables before travelling as 'disruption' is leading to some being amended.

The changes by Arriva Cymru, which came into effect at the weekend, are said to be only temporary and are believed to be down to a shortage of drivers in North Wales.

Arriva Midland has advised Wrexham Council of disruption affecting its bus services that will effect the Oswestry to Wrexham bus service meaning some will be suspended.

This is most likely to affect those travelling to or from the Chirk, Cefn Mawr, Plas Madoc and Ruabon areas.

Bus users who travel this route are advised to check online at www.traveline.cymru before they make their journey to ensure the service is running.

Alternatively, they can call Traveline Cymru on 0800 464 0000.
