In 1866, transport in Lampeter was greatly improved with the opening of the railway linking {{rws|Carmarthen}} and {{rws|Aberystwyth}}. In 1911, a branch line opened to [[Aberayron railway station|Aberaeron]]. Following the nationalisation of the railways, the passenger service to Aberaeron ceased in 1951. Passenger trains on the main line to Carmarthen and Aberystwyth continued until December 1964 when the track was badly damaged by flooding south of Aberystwyth and through trains were suspended. This was the era of the "[[Beeching Axe]]" and it took little political persuasion to decide that the cost of repairs would be unjustified. The remaining passenger services were withdrawn. [[Milk train]]s continued to the processing factories at Pont Llanio until 1970, and Felinfach until 1973. The line was eventually lifted in 1975. However, the section of the old line between [[Bronwydd Arms railway station|Bronwydd Arms]] and [[Danycoed Halt]] still exists and is used by the [[Gwili Railway]], a steam railway preservation society which operates a regular timetable during summer months.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.gov.uk/raib-reports/fatal-accident-at-bronwydd-arms-station-on-the-gwili-railway |title=Fatal accident at Bronwydd Arms station on the Gwili Railway |publisher=Rail Accident Investigation Branch|access-date=25 May 2015}}</ref>

Regular bus services operate through the town, connecting Lampeter to Aberystwyth, Carmarthen and Swansea. Two buses a day continue beyond Swansea, providing a through service to Cardiff.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rome2rio.com/s/Lampeter-Wales/Cardiff|title=Lampeter to Cardiff|publisher=Rome to Rio|access-date=27 November 2022}}</ref>
