Passengers are being reminded that cross-border restrictions between England and Wales still remain, despite the Wales firebreak lockdown ending today.

James Price, CEO of Transport for Wales, said: “As the changes to national restrictions come into effect in England and Wales, we want to make sure there is a clear message for passengers using all modes of transport.
"Travel between England and Wales is only allowed with reasonable excuse. The Welsh Government has been very clear that this does not include things like visiting hospitality centers or shops.
"Once again, we would like to thank the public for their understanding, the vast majority of people have been adhering to the rules and we hope this continues."
