Colchester Campus

The TGM Group will be taking over the X22 service from the University of Essex's Colchester Campus to Stansted Airport from Sunday 9 January 2011.

Full details of the X22 service from Stansted Airport to the University of Essex  

The X22 service will operate around the clock, every two hours, 364 days a year, beginning at the University of Essex and continuing to Colchester North Station before going on to Braintree and Stansted Airport.

Transport Policy Co-ordinator Charlotte Humphries said: "We are delighted the service is continuing thanks to TGM Group and our staff and students can continue to enjoy quick and easy access to Stansted Airport by using the X22 coach service.

“This is a very important service for the University community and Colchester residents so it is brilliant news that the area can continue benefitting from this route.
