The Swansea Bay and West Wales Metro, or simply the Swansea Bay Metro (Welsh: Metro Bae Abertawe; originally proposed as the South West Wales Metro) is a proposed enhancement of railways, buses and active travel around the Swansea Bay and South West Wales (or just West Wales) areas of South Wales.

The project could see reopening of the Neath Valley line through new stations at Neath Abbey, Jersey Marine, Neath and Aberdulais, an on-street connection from Swansea to Mumbles, and new stations via the existing Swansea to Cardiff route.

Councillor Rob Jones, the leader of Neath Port Talbot council said in 2018: The Welsh Government has agreed to fund a feasibility study into transport across Swansea Bay which is expected to be submitted next year.

We have no difficulty with this exercise, although the high level ideas put forward so far require a great deal more substance.
