Getting around Telford with Citymapper
Citymapper has more than 40 routes in the Telford & Wrekin area, including the entire Arriva fleet which connects the whole town to its surroundings. The transport centre for the town is the bus interchange at Telford Centre, a very short walk from the main train station. From these two points, Citymapper can direct you to destinations across the Midlands including major cities like Birmingham, Nottingham, Leicester and Derby. Once you're there we can help you explore all over these cities too!
That's not all, Citymapper will also let you know which routes are covered by the £2 fare cap in Telford and beyond, as well as how much the train will cost in comparison. Speaking of trains, Citymapper also includes live departures, delays and cancellations for all services on West Midlands Railway, Transport for Wales and Avanti West Coast.
With the help of Citymapper you can be guided to some of Telford's biggest attractions like the internationally recognised "Birthplace of Industry", Ironbridge Gorge or the fascinating Blists Hill Victorian Town.
