Parking - devwakey - 16-08-2022
Hi there!
I'm looking to get down to the game tomorrow night, but its been a fair while since I've been to the Hawthrones!
I used to always park on the Dual carriageway by the motorway but believe that may not be an option anymore.
I will be struggling to get down to the area before 7.00pm so looking for somewhere to park up easily that will allow me to jump back on the motorway after the match to head back to Leeds.
Can anyone suggest/ advise best parking options.

Don't know whether or not it's 'best', Dev, but I always used to drive past the Ground (from M5) on B'ham Road then Holyhead Road. Just past the Royal Oak there's a road on the right which is fairly empty (and free!)
It's a 3-4 minute walk to the Ground. There will be a few minutes queue back to the M5, but you'll get that wherever you park.

When we've been down we've parked in the Academy car park. It was prebook only. I don't know if that's just for away fans. I think it was a fiver.
First time we went we parked in industrial area on Birmingham Road. That was pay on the day.
A lot of queueing on Birmingham Road, though!

I always used to park in the industrial estate off Park Lane, haven’t been since Covid though so not sure what they charge now.
