Cambridge United fans are being encouraged to jump on the bus and take all the stress out of getting to the big match, as new extended services begin for this Tuesday’s game.
The U’s will take on Chesterfield in a League Two game on Tuesday 9th December at 7.45pm. The match will see the first running of an extended bus service from Newmarket Park & Ride, which will now run later for Cambridge United’s midweek League games. So, you can cheer, chant, and celebrate every goal without worrying about getting home!
Supporters will be able to park for free, hop on the bus, and enjoy a stress-free journey straight to the Abbey Stadium and back – at a great value fare of just £3.30, with a Matchday Return.
The new bus times running from the Cledara Abbey Stadium to the Newmarket Road End Park & Ride are 21:00; 21:30 and 22:00.
David Boden, Commercial Director of Stagecoach East said: “So many of my team here are big U’s fans, which means we know the stress and difficulty of trying to park anywhere near the Abbey Stadium, so we are delighted to be able to offer an easy and affordable way to make the most of matchday.
“A Matchday Return really will offer less faff and more football!”
Alex Tunbridge, Chief Executive Officer of Cambridge United, added: “We’re really pleased to introduce this new arrangement, which will make it much easier for supporters to get to and from our midweek fixtures.
“We’d strongly encourage supporters to make use of the buses for the big games ahead – it’s a simple, efficient way to get to the Cledara Abbey, and it helps reduce congestion around the stadium. We’re delighted to be able to offer this for our fans.”
