Car Park and Transport
Car Park spaces will be available at tomorrow’s game from 4pm with the Car Park charge now £6 per car.
Following the game, the traffic signals will now be changed to prioritise people leaving the Car Park and Stadium. This gives fans an advantage and hurries the process of leaving the Car Park after the game.
With the new road now open from The Trafford Centre to the The Salford Stadium fans can park at the Trafford Centre of ChillFactore and walk down the road which is only a 15-minute walk. The new road offers another entry and exit from the Stadium and should also help the flow of traffic before and after the game.
Of course, the 67 and 100 First buses are also available for fans to get on to and from the Stadium with kick-off times now moving forward by thirty minutes.
