Directions from the station to the ground
Doncaster station is around 2 miles from the ground. It is recommended to get a bus - go through the Frenchgate centre (opposite the station - use the underpass to get across the busy road), exit it and go down the side of McDonalds to get a bus to the ground. 

Don't pay for a bus ticket twice!
If you get a FirstDay bus ticket in York (£2.20) this is also valid in Doncaster so you can use that ticket to get buses to/from the ground at no extra cost! (See here).

The bus numbers that go to the ground are numbers: 54 (Olive Line), 55 (Pink Line), 57 (Brown Line), and 75.
