Coach Travel to all ITFC first team home matches - league and cup

The Bury St Edmunds Branch runs one coach to all first-team home matches - league and cup.
You don't have to commit to travelling to every game - we welcome fans who wish to travel on a one-off or occasional basis too. Full details of coach departure places and times can be found further down this page.

To book your seat on the coach to a Home match, please phone or text Nigel Cole on 07729 833543, or if you are a regular traveller on our coach Nigel will take bookings for forthcoming matches on each coach.

New coach travellers are made very welcome - we're a very friendly group!

Our return coach fares for the current season remained unchanged - they were the same as they have been for the last 7 seasons - remarkably good value!

Adults... £6.00 return

Senior Citizens... £6.00 return

Juniors and Students... £4.00 return

JS Card Holders... £4.00 return

We pick up and drop off at 9 locations around Bury St Edmunds, and we park very close to the turnstiles at the ground in Sir Alf Ramsey Way. We return to Bury St Edmunds promptly after the end of the match. The atmosphere on our coach is always one of a very friendly nature with a wide mix of age groups travelling.

The lower fares are based on member status, as follows:-

Juniors: aged under 16 on 1st August immediately preceding the current season
Students: in full time education providing proof of status
JS40 Card Holders: must produce their JS40 card

We normally provide all regular travellers with a free coach journey at the end of the season as a thank you for supporting us throughout the season. We do however very much welcome, appreciate, and thank, persons wishing to travel infrequently or even one-off. The coach picks up at these locations, and drops off at the same locations on the way back through Bury after the match in the same order. The coach departs very promptly at the times listed below, and also departs promptly from Sir Alf Ramsey Way near the stadium after the final whistle.
