National Express has secured the last 2,000 tickets for the Barbarians versus South Africa rugby match on Saturday at Twickenham Stadium. The UK's leading coach company is running dedicated services to the game from locations across the UK, and has been working with the RFU since July to provide transport solutions for rugby fans. 

The eagerly anticipated one-off match will see the new world champions take on a high profile invitational Barbarians side in The Gartmore Challenge. The extra tickets have been allocated to National Express to ensure people going to the game travel by coach reducing congestion and environmental impact in the area.

RFU's Sales and Marketing Manager, Tom Hill, said "This is great news for rugby fans. Due to the reduced train services to Twickenham station this weekend, the dedicated coaches will make it easier for fans to enjoy the game without any traffic hassles."

But it's not just supporters that will benefit. "The services will also help reduce general traffic around the stadium on match days, which is good for fans, local residents and the environment," said Hill.

Dave Watkin, Sales and Marketing Director for National Express said, "Going by coach is a great way to get to Twickenham. Our services operate from 25 towns and cities across the UK and drop off and pick up at the Stadium coach park adjacent to the main stadium entrances".

National Express provide services from Bath, Birmingham, Bridgend-Sarn, Bristol, Cambridge, Cardiff, Chelmsford, Chippenham, Cirencester, Colchester, Coventry, Gloucester, Huntingdon, Ipswich, Leicester, London, Newport, Northampton, Nottingham, Oxford, Peterborough, Reading, Swansea, Swindon and Worcester.
