Meet our Young Person Travel Ambassador

This summer, we welcomed back a familiar face to SuffolkOnBoard. After completing work experience with us, Mya returned to SuffolkOnBoard this summer as our Young Person Travel Ambassador!

Her mission? To find out what young people really think about bus travel, what puts them off, and what could make things better.

She spent the summer researching, surveying young people, travelling by bus and coming up with ideas for SuffolkOnBoard.

And she gave us plenty to think about!

We’ll be sharing some of her findings over the next few weeks…

🚧 🚌 Temporary Shuttle Service Connecting Royal Hospital School & Stutton with Ipswich Buses 92 Bus Service 🚌 🚧

From Monday 28 September, the B1080 outside Royal Hospital School will be closed during the working day for essential works by Anglian Water. A temporary shuttle service will operate for up to four weeks, connecting Royal Hospital School and Stutton with the 92 bus service at Brantham for onward travel to Ipswich and Manningtree.

During this time, the 92 service will continue to serve Holbrook village but will bypass Royal Hospital School and Stutton in both directions, operating directly between Holbrook and Brantham.

⏰ Please allow extra time for your journey.
