New landing area for 1st Phasers, think there's also a small area set aside for Warwick and Leam supporters.

If something like that ever happens they will need to review the on street parking as you can’t take away hundreds and d spaces and offer nothing back.

Think that’s been moved to central six, going up as we speak. New Hilton is supposed to be built on it though so defo less parking in the future

Parking needs looking at as gates increase and if we got to the prem. 30k could be regular the ridiculous 2 mile parking restrictions is a joke.

Would be fine if we had a functional public transport system.

Need to scrap the 2 mile exclusion zone. It was put in place on the basis of good public transport links that never materialised

It stretches more or less right up to Bell Green shops and the craftsman pub Keresley every car that resides in between should have a permit or risk a ticket, crazy.

Disagree, the answer is to deliver the transport

Apparently when the Landing Strip goes, they're going to say they're building a battery factory instead so no one will realise the devastation to the local economy for not having their Nandos delivered on time.

Remember folks, you can put in planning permission for anything. It doesn't necessarily mean it's ever going to be built.

You don't even need to own the land or property, I believe.

I think we'd all prefer that, but after years of planning for 'Areana 2000' and 17 years of the stadium, I think we've got more chance of seeing Grendel and O'drivel tying the knot.

One of the justifications for the hotel, and the deal the council did with Wasps regarding the land, was that the hotel was desperately needed for City of Culture. That will be over before there's any sign of a brick being laid.

I've been in contact with the CBS Parking contract manager and he said he was unaware of change in capacity for car park C for next season. Pricing details are due the end of this week/beginning of next. Not sure whether that's also the release of parking season tickets. It'll be an expensive month if it is.

CBS parking season tickets are now showing for next season....£230 ,was £200 this season so an increase but less than everything else is increasing.

It’s ok they’re gonna put a teleported into car park A so we have no worries.

They do need to sort out public transport from the rest of the city but still have car parking capacity for those of us outside Cov. While I’d love to get the train all the way my wallet couldn’t take it.

Do the park and rides still operate? When I used to travel up from Portsmouth I'd use them and it was a decent service but can't recall seeing the buses waiting after a match for years now. Always seemed pretty busy so not sure why they'd scrap that if they have.

Agree but sufficient parking is vital at any stadium venue. Take that away and a lot of people probably just won't bother going.

Especially those that live further afield.

To be honest I don't know as it never gets to that point.

It's cheaper to drive a car alone so when there are 4 of us the cost of car compared to train doesn't factor. Wish it was an option.

Just picking up on this late.
My maths are poor but is that a hike of around 15% .
What on earth justifies that?
I mean the club has real overheads involving humans and hardware services etc .
What do these lot provide , automated access of vicinity for 2hrs 23 time's a season .
Requires some mass disobedience to shake it up.

Park and Ride should be the answer...I remember using one near Ryton I think a few years back and was a lot easier.

Sadly I'm at the mercy of the Car Park due to the distance I choose to travel and my constant worry about not being able to park. I'm south of Bristol and used their P&R for the Ashton Gate game, it's normally into town then switches to Ashton Gate when there's matches on and seemed to work well although was a bit quiet on the way home.

Well that’s the status quo: we have shit public transport and a parking exclusion zone.

TBH I’ve always come by car and never had an issue be it parking at Tesco, being dropped off, or using something like JustPark.

Doesn't mean it's going to be turned down either, given the 'relaxed' approach of our council to HMOs, green belt development, student flats etc. etc.
