Five supporter bus routes for pre-season fixture

Figure image
Leicester Tigers will run five bus routes for supporters in conjunction with Arriva Bus for the new season, starting with the home fixture against Nottingham on August 25.

Arriva have added a T4 service from Market Bosworth, picking up in Newbold Verdon, Desford and Leicester Forest East on the way to Welford Road.

And there is a new T5 service starting at Coalville, picking up at Bardon, Field Head and Glenfield on the way to the stadium.

The T1 from Market Harborough and T2 from Oakham proved extremely popular in their debut year last season, and a T3 from Hinckley was established in the second half of the year. All three will continue for 2012/13.

Also for next season, the T1 service will add a new pick-up and drop-off point at Great Glen, outside the Greyhound pub.

All services drop off next to the stadium 30 minutes before kick-off and depart from the same place 30 minutes after the final whistle.

Timings are adjusted to allow for kick-off alterations throughout the season and timetables for all five services will be published on the club website in advance of each game.

All return tickets are just £6 adults, £5 concessions and juniors, wherever you join us. Simply pay on board.

All services for the Worcester Warriors fixture on September 8 will operate half an hour earlier to allow supporters to visit the entertainment and activities at Tigers In The Park 2 on the way into the game.
