Car Park B / Bridge Car Park

[Sheebo]

Hi all - quick question I'm hoping some can help with. I have some parking tomorrow booked for various people for car park B (formerly Bridge car park).

In 2014's PDF 'travel info' it says the stadium is a 500yard walk from there. (I acidentally found it on google). On this years' one it says 1500 metre walk to stadium?! Which is correct please - 1500m seems a long way and need to know what time to allow...?

Thanks in advance.

More like 1500m. I'd had said it's a mile or so having parked there a few times.

10 min brisk walk ....30 mins to get back out if u saunter down after the final whistle

Thanks all - I guess it was maybe a mis-print on the 2014 doc I found. It's for the ladies match so people shouldn't be an issue. Does seem a long way to walk though

Yes, agreed. Very reluctantly, if I am in a hurry and when I use this car park, which isn't often, I leave 3 minutes before the end and walk very fast, or else it will be 30 minutes to negotiate the narrow railway bridge. If you are not in a hurry, then stay and have a drink for 20/25 minutes.

Definitely 1500m.

Of course it depends on how quick one can walk but recently when I've used the car park I've managed to sail away with very little waiting. And that's staying until the final whistle.
