A BUS COMPANY has been forced to change its north Wales routes amid anti-social behaviour.
Lloyds Coaches says it has taken the decision to 'not serve' Corwen Bus Station after 5pm until at least Monday, November 4, when the decision will be reviewed.
Services T3, T3C (Barmouth to Wrexham) and T10 (Bangor to Corwen) will no longer serve the Corwen Interchange after 5pm, the company has confirmed.
They added that connections can still be made by the Old Station House (Ifor Williams).
The company says that it has decided to do pull the plug on those services after instances of 'youths attacking buses'.
A statement from the firm added that 'projectiles' were being used to attack their vehicles.
Announcing their decision, Lloyds Coaches added that the 'safety' of their staff and passengers was paramount.
They also added additional route info for those who might otherwise miss out due to the decision made.

A statement from Lloyds Coaches read: "Due to antisocial behaviour with youths attacking buses with projectiles, buses will not serve Corwen Bus Station after 5pm until Monday 4th November at the earliest.
"Please use bus stops known as Liverpool Terrace and the Old Station House (for connections between T3, T3C and T10) after 5pm.
"The safety of our staff and passengers comes first. Do you know where your child is tonight?"
Addressing concerns raised by passengers on their post, the company added: "CCTV will be sent to North Wales Police to identify the culprits. Sadly this isn't the first time this has happened, so we've reluctantly had to take action this time."
North Wales Police has been approached for comment on the incidents.
