RED CAR PARK

See there are some red car park spaces available - red 3 - on OS

anyone got one - how long does it take you to get to the roundabout at the bottom of the hill after a normal match

All depends how quickly you get back to your car after the whistle goes.

Barriers get closed off as soon as a considerable crowd is on the roads, which could be any time before the final whistle, usually during stoppage time.

The barriers get opened as soon as the buses between the carparks are full and have left down Northern Way, which is normally about 10-15mins after the final whistle. On a normal matchday, you would be lucky to get down to the roundabout at the bottom before 5.15ish

HTH :)

It also depends a lot on where you actually get to park in the red car parks as it can take a fair time to get into the queue for the exit and whether you are heading down Northern Way which seems to be more congested than the southbound route via Hurst Way. I always stay to the final whistle and therefore cannot escape before the barriers come down. It was 5.25 on Saturday when I got on the A33 southbound and thats about average.

Or like some last season, how quickly they got to their car before the whistle goes.
