A loss of 14 services and reducing the frequencies of 8 other routes and a loss of 77 jobs as explained on bbc news.
Routes that will be withsrawn are:
X16 risca - cardiff
X32 maerdy - cardiff
X78 merthyr - pontypridd
244 pontypridd - bridgend
411 tynewydd - st johns high
7 blackwood - pontypridd
C16 caerphilly - nelson
C17 bargoed - caerphilly
538 blackwood - penybryn
30 brynmawr - cwmbran
64 newport - underwood
74 newport - chepstow
X74 newport - chepstow
60 newport - usk

This sounds like a major retrenchment by Stagecoach in South Wales, as most if not all of the services listed are not even worked by Brynmawr depot. Curiously, the main services which ARE worked by Brynmawr (E2, E3, X4 and X15) are not shown as being withdrawn.
