History

Roe bodied Leyland Atlantean in November 1982

The origins of Ipswich Buses can be traced to November 1903 when Ipswich Corporation commenced operating trams. In 1923 the trams were replaced by trolleybuses. Buses were introduced from August 1950. To comply with the Transport Act 1985, in 1986 the assets of Ipswich Corporation were transferred to a new legal entity, Ipswich Buses.[1]

In February 2016, a deal was finalised to take over the staff, bus routes and most vehicles of independent operator Carter's Coach Services.[3]

Park & ride

Ipswich Buses operated the Ipswich park & ride system under contract to Suffolk County Council from 1997 until 2008 when First Eastern Counties took over the service.[4] In November 2013 Ipswich Buses recommenced operating the park and ride service.[4][5] In July 2017 First Norfolk & Suffolk took over its operation.[6][7]

Fleet

As at April 2023 the fleet consisted of 74 coaches and buses.[8]

Services

As at April 2023 Ipswich Buses operate 37 town, country, and school routes.[9]
