[Albion] Mill Road Park and Ride

[Bansko Seagull]

We used the Mill Road park and ride for the first time today for about 4 seasons. It was a very efficient way to travel to the Amex. We stayed for a drink after to let the queues die down and we were pleasantly surprised to only wait a few minutes for the bus back. However, the bus got stuck in the traffic jam in Mill Road and it took a long time to get out of Mill Road. Is this usual or was there an incident that caused the traffic jam?

What time did you get to Mill Road ?

I wonder if the absence of any response to this is because they’re still stuck in Mill Road?

That’s how it works and necessarily gets worse the farther away from final whistle, hundreds of cars and the odd bus waiting for general traffic to let them out at a busy roundabout.

Leaving at or before final whistle, would’ve given you a far, far shorter queue of cars.




But not this late ….. spooky. Something to do with the Roswell installation in the Southwick Tunnel?

It became dreadful when they altered the lane markings on the roundabout at the top

Today I did a train to Brighton (arriving 12.15). Minced down to Churchuill Sq, picked up a paper and some betting slips on the way. Commandeered a table in the Prince of Wales in time for the Man City game, had a couple of pints, put the bets on at half time. Considered a yomp back up to the station, but there was a No29 bus sat there at 13.45, so I jumped on board that instead, and was supping another pint in the WSU concourse by 2.25.

It might take a bit longer on a bus, but stone the crows, its a lot more relaxed and civilised. Sit down, pop the headphones in, jobs a goodun. I'm a bus CONVERT

We got on the bus at the Amex at 5.45 but didn’t get out of Mill Road until 6.30.

We left on 90 mins when the board went up for 5 mins additional time.
We were getting on the bus as the final whistle blew. We got dropped at Zone C in Mill Road and was back in Bognor at 6pm.

If there is at least a two goal margin on 90 mins I make a dash for it. I reckon it can save me about an hour.
Bad fan maybe, but I get to have dinner with my family.

It's a downfall of the Mill Road site that the buses have to use the same entrance and exit as the cars. I think the race course has separate entrance and exit for the buses so you get away quicker after games. Not sure if the Lewes Road Uni P&R is still in use but that is also better.

Thinking of doing Mill Rd Park & Ride today. Can I park my car on Woodland Dr or Ave and then just walk to the P&R site and hop on a bus? Also, wondering what time the buses start heading towards the Amex for an 8pm kick off? Cheers!

Yes you can, or even around the top end of Valley drive if you can find a spot. Ther buses stop at the top junction with Mill Road and the Dyke Rd roundabout. Get there from 6pm onwards.

Yes you can park in other nearby roads although for some reason some get upset if not parking in Mill Rd. I think from about 5 30
