BD12 Owl Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Best place to park in and around Hillsborough tomorrow?, normally get the train however driving down instead. Should be at Hillsborough for 10.30am/11.00am so just wondering best place to park for reasonable price and fairly easy to get away from.

Kanye West Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Training ground car park will be your best bet mate, be loads of space especially at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Herries Road / Wordsworth Avenue areas have seen car's being broken into and wing mirrors broken off and nicked recently so avoid like the plague Also be wary of traffic wardens tomorrow Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopswfc76 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Just park on road up towards Wadsley Bridge Club its free and if heading towards Bradford straight away in that direction with a little thought parking at Hillsborough isn't an issue even for the biggest games unless medically you cant walk any reasonable distance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hirstysboots Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I always park on Halifax road - 10 minute walk to the ground but gets me clear away heading back to J36 of M1 northbound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BD12 Owl Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Cheers for the advice, will avoid Herries Road / Wordsworth Avenue, being from Bradford and tight free parking is always a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manila_Owl Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 If you're coming from North then as mentioned, Halifax Road (cars were vandalised on the road off Railway Pub so best parking further up e.g. residential roads). Or any of the streets near the training ground (you can then leave north towards Stocksbridge Bypass/M1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhForAnotherShez Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 .........and if you choose to park on a side street, be aware of the Clearway signs / Clearway ends signs. Some people think they've been lucky and found a place near the main road junction, but they are still in the Clearway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
