Super Savings on Route 65 this Christmas

Shop locally in Monmouth or Chepstow when travelling on the 65 bus this Christmas!

Newport Bus is pleased to partner with 'Friends of the 65 Bus' this Christmas, providing route 65 customers with discounted fares when using the service everyday from Saturday 14 December 2024 until Saturday 4 January 2025. Up-to 5 people (with a maximum of 2 adults) can travel between Monmouth and Chepstow anywhere on the route for a discounted group day ticket of just £8! 

This offer is only available for customers using the 65 bus - made possible due to the partnership formed between both Newport Bus and Friends of the 65 bus; enabling this special offer and allowing easier travel on the route for families every Saturday leading up to Christmas. The original offer only ran on Saturdays but will now be on offer every day from 14 December to 4 January. 

Alex Clarke, Newport Bus's Commercial Manager said, "We've been working with the Friends of the 65 Bus, since taking on the service in April. After speaking with the group, it was clear that both parties want a safe, reliable and enjoyable bus service, and we're committed to doing so with the support of our customers. This offer is a great way for us to showcase our commitment to the communities we serve, and give back to those who're supportive of us. The original offer was just for Saturdays but due to the recent storms, customers haven't been able to benefit so we've extended it to everyday so there's even more opportunities to support your local bus service and your local town centres on Monmouth and Chepstow"

Brian Mahony, spokesperson of Friends of the 65 Bus commented, "Friends of the 65 Bus are delighted that Newport Bus are making a special Christmas group ticket available. This is a great opportunity for family groups to save money and use the 65 Bus to shop local during this festive season."

Save money, avoid congestion and parking charges and support your local shops with this exclusive special offer!

Newport Bus and Friends of the 65 Bus wish all passengers a Happy Christmas.
