Successful season for Arriva bus services

Figure image
Almost 3,500 Leicester Tigers fans used the Arriva matchday bus services to travel to Welford Road this season.

Arriva have operated buses for every home game during the 2013/14 campaign, whatever the kick-off time and day, arriving at Welford Road 30 minutes before kick-off and departing 30 minutes after the final whistle.
 
The T1 – T4 routes start at Market Harborough, Oakham, Hinckley and Market Bosworth. The T2 Oakham and the T4 Market Bosworth were the most popular services, with each carrying almost 1,000 passengers to and from Welford Road over the season.
 
The T6 service from Melton was introduced for the first time for the Heineken Cup game against Montpellier in December. A separate minibus service, the T5, runs from Coalville.

The Arriva matchday bus services are set to return for next season.
