Darren Roe, Managing Director of Stagecoach East, said: “We know that this is an exciting time for a lot of football fans, many of whom will want a beer or a wine while they support their teams.

“Travelling by bus is also the environmentally responsible way to get around. Figures from Bus Users UK show that a brand-new diesel car with a single occupant can emit more nitrogen oxides than a new bus carrying 50 or more passengers. A fully loaded double decker bus can take 75 cars off the road.”

The bus is a great value way to get around, with customers being able to take advantage of the £2.00 fare for single journeys om Stagecoach East services throughout the region. Find out more about your journey on the Stagecoach App.
