Is there a campus or university bus at Bangor University?
Yes — 1 of the 23 routes is a university or campus service: the 42. These are usually the most frequent way onto campus in term time, and some run only during term.
What time is the first bus to Bangor University?
The earliest weekday departure from the campus's own stops is 05:22, on the 5C. Buses towards the campus start earlier at stops along the way — check the route timetable for your own stop if you have a 9am lecture.
Can I get a bus back to campus at night?
Not on these routes — the last weekday bus from the campus is 23:57. Check the town page for late services from the centre. Term-time student services sometimes run later than the year-round timetable published here.
Do buses run to Bangor University outside term time?
The timetables here are the operators' own published data, so they show what is running now, including any current holiday timetable. Dedicated university services are the ones most likely to stop or thin out in the vacation — that applies to the 42. Ordinary local routes generally run all year.
How much is the bus to Bangor University, and is there a student fare?
Fares are set by each operator. Most sell a discounted student term pass, and the myTravelPass scheme gives under-22s roughly a third off single fares across Wales.
