On the Buses

With effect from the 18th November, there have been changes to the bus service operated  by First Eastern Counties Bus Company between Ipswich and Felixstowe.

The X7 (Fast service) has been reintroduced during the day. This calls at  Ipswich station only and then continues non-stop to Felixstowe along the A14. Obviously, the journey time is shorter at 36 minutes.

From Ipswich, there are onward connections to London, Cambridge, Peterborough, Norwich and Lowestoft. Read More...
