National Express Colchester Stansted recent customer reviews
The bus stop was a little difficult to locate, but manageable. The bus arrived in time to pick us up, but there were traffic jams and we arrived almost half an hour later. The driver did let us know in advance about the slow traffic ahead. I had allowed an extra hour for traffic jams in my journey, so it did not affect me.
