}}Carters Coach Services[1] was a bus operator based in Ipswich in Suffolk, England operating over a wide area in both Suffolk and Essex.[2] On 27 May 2016 the company was taken over by Ipswich Buses and the Carters brand was phased out.[3][4]

History

Carters was set up as a family business in 1985. The company first ran from a base in East Bergholt, Suffolk. The depot relocated to a petrol station next to the A12 in Capel St Mary.

On 27 May 2016 the company was taken over by Ipswich Buses and began using Constantine Road Depot in Ipswich. Carters Coaches initially kept their separate identity (although the brand has now been completely phased out) with most tickets being interchangeable with Ipswich Buses.[5]

Services

Carters operated a number of regular standard routes and more limited services. Both urban and rural areas were served with many of the company's routes running into Ipswich serving the Old Cattle Market bus station. It also operated some school services under contract to Suffolk County Council.[6]

Fleet

As at September 2013 Carters operated a fleet of 13 buses. It also owned 4 preserved double deckers: 1 Bristol Lodekka, 2 Bristol VRs and 1 AEC Routemaster.[7]
