Cheers for the heads up.
Straight after that post I thought I should probably book my parking and saw the error of my ways. Guess it'll be a case of waiting for any other parking to open up or just biting the bullet and jumping on the p&r bus.

I can’t speak for Lewes I believe others have helped ..Southwick north of station is fine and free..but I reckon Lewes will be less hassle for u…I’m going to give that a go for the Leicester game to see what it’s like should not be able to get in The Bridge car park

How long does that take to walk approx?
It's about 2 to 3 miles so however long that will take you.

Are there still plenty of cycle racks available outside the ground? Park and cycle a good option if so.
Depends on the weather but there arent enough generally if you arrive close to kickoff, especially since they no longer allow us to lock to the railway fences. Though you can find places nearby. Dont think anyone has mentioned this but the parking permit areas have been expanded during lockdown to include the Bear Road/Coombe Road areas and the old barracks. This will put more of a squeeze on free parking areas that you could once park and bus or even amex bike from.

Why wasn't a multi-storey carpark built at the ground?
It still amazes me there isn't a Btn BikeShare docking station at the ground yet given both the stadium and the bike share scheme are sponsored by Amex.
Obviously not expecting 30k people to all jump on hire bikes after a match but a big docking station there would definitely be used on matchdays.
Or an underground one, at least.
Like *checks notes* the Estádio José Alvalade XXI in Lisbon.

Dammit i usually park round that area and get the bus, the only place now left is the city centre
EDIT: looked on the B+H council website it says permit only but nothing about matchday restrictions. bugger

No longer available on a match by match basis now though, and needs to be booked for the entire season, £170 a seat, so although convenient, not the cheapest option. It does mean that you can enjoy a drinky or three when you are the Amex though.
It would and if people had to provide ID for them with your driving licence on the line like the trial scooter schemes it would work well. Especially if we had a bike only lane away from the stadium, it is a fight to get to the road. I head for the university, starting on the A27 is way too dodgy.
Oh thought it would be like V wgich is Monday to Sunday. Monday to Friday from that so you might still be ok then.

How soon is now?
Ha. You seem to have missed that party, by about 11 years.

You like a good moan don't you?
In the 10 years we’ve been at the Amex I’ve never had to use park and ride as I’ve always got the train or parked in the Bridge car park but looks like I’m going to have to for the Leicester game as no trains running between Littlehampton and Brighton that weekend. I could do with some advice if possible.
It’s my kids first Albion game so I wanted to get to the ground particularly early so they can take it all in so as that’s a 2pm game, what times will the car parks open and the first buses run to to the ground? And how long do they run after the game?
Out of interest, how are other Hampshire based fans planning to get to that game?

Thanks for the heads up, hadn't spotted that one.
