Intensive Tempos

Despite losing the off-site car park contract at Cardiff Airport, New Adventure Travel retains the Vale of Glamorgan Council contract for Service T9 between Cardiff City Centre and Cardiff Airport. This operates for up to 20 hours a day seven days a week and uses six Optare Tempos in a variation of the Welsh Government's TrawsCymru green and white livery. The intensity of the contract means that vehicles from NAT's own fleet often have to appear as substitutes.

 

The service started in 2013 with First Cymru as the contractor and former operator of the six Tempos, though the three with 61-plates were previously in the Stagecoach in South Wales fleet.

 

Representing these is 12.6m YA13 AAF, which was once 64507 in the First Cymru fleet, and is captured on Port Road heading away from the Airport in ealy May 2019.
