Changes to IB

I have been informed by the commercial manager of Ipswich Buses, that from 7th January 2019, bigger buses will be employed for the congested routes such as the 8 between Tower Ramparts and Whitehouse Asda for example as currently, there are loads standing throughout the busy times between 3:30pm and 5:00pm; hopefully, it'll be replaced by double-deckers. The same issue with the 9 and 10 routes presumably. 

Also there will be vehicle replacements and repaints/refurbs during 2019 which make the buses look more modern into the present-day scheme for the single-deck fleets such as the E200's. 

Also, Country fares will be increased on 2nd January, and it follows as:

Adults
7 Day Pass – £25
28 Day Pass – £85
6 Months – £450 (Shop)

Annual £850 – (Shop)

Under 20's

Under 5s – free
7 Day Pass – £16.50
28 Day Pass – £55

Country Day tickets are also available on all rural routes, including travel to Colchester, Manningtree, Shotley and Hitcham (this also includes journeys on Ipswich Buses Town Routes).
