Steadybreeze Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Just wonder whats been happening out around the Tile place/Chadd footbridge since the last games at PP. We used to park in Chadd over the footbridge or Toys 'R Us or the Tile place. Before Covis stuck it was a mess and we were having to park along Chequers Road, sometimes almost as far out as The Pentagon. Anything sorted about the new footbridge yet? is there still street parking in Chadd, i think they were trying to stop it at one point issuing fines and the like.

Foreveram Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 We usually park in Chad, toys R us is fenced off so no parking, the fireplace building has been flattened so no parking there either. The new bridge is in place and wider than the old one.Walked over it for Man U and Real Bettis but not too busy for those games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the council were looking to stop on street parking there after complaints from the locals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreveram Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 We usually park by the shops and then get chips on the way Steadybreeze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the council were looking to stop on street parking there after complaints from the locals Last time I tried to park in Chadd, the locals were out in high vis jackets pointing to some home made signs they'd clipped to lamp posts. It certainly wasn't official, but I didn't chance having my car keyed by ignoring them! This was behind the shops on Nottingham Rd mind, closer to the ground near the cemetery was less problematic.

EtoileSportiveDeDerby Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Parking is a good barometer of how well the club is doing. The way this season is shaping up, parking should be easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampant Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Is there still parking at the Premier Inn about a mile from the ground? The one where they used to ask for a £5 charity donation but now have a different system? Apologies for the vagueness but I'm an outsider and don't know the name of the roads.

I didn't know you had to do it online so I'll sort that tomorrow. Edit: it's Stanier Way, Wyvern Business Park isn't it?

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Attendance only likely to be 16,000-17,000 so that should help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaspode Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) Seems there's no parking behind the Arena this year (or at least not initially) - guess it's all reserved for the Arena Vaccine parkers.....

swuram Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 A few years ago, when I lived in Notts, I used to park at the old fireplace lot. Is this not there anymore? Mostly park at the train station or streets around the "town" side of the station and don't have an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't blame them I suppose, some of the parking over there is crazy on match days. We'll give it a go and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Durden Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Where can you park for free that's not a massive walk away from the ground. My sedan chair is being repaired this weekend and I've given my flunkies a few days off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
