[Albion] Where are you ALLOWED to park near the amex

[Wilko]

Always use public transport for games so do not know the answer but where is the closest you are allowed to park to Amex, happy to walk 30-45 mins or whatever but I know coldean for example has restrictions on match days.

Any help please?

the back of Hollingdean might be do-able, then cut through Moulsecoomb station

if you're fit and healthy 45 mins should be fine

I'd imagine if you headed up into Coldean away from the shops, your chances of being ticketed must be pretty slim.

That said, I guess if council enforcement types were going to be out in force, today is the day. Likely to be rich pickings.

Park in Hollingbury somewhere near Asda (just not the Asda car park itself). You have the option to walk down Coldean Lane, although the walk back up after the game is a bit of a ball ache, you also have the option of the 24 bus from Asda which stops at the Hikers Rest and walk to the Stadium from there.

Think they’ve made the Coombe Road area parking permit only so that’s no longer an option, have parked there before when running late for games.

Woodingdean is a 40min walk over the Downs. Nice footpath in place too.

Aren't there gangsters who will do you if you park outside their mum's house or somesuch?

Used to always be cars parked on the north side of London Road station. Fans used to get off the train, hop over the bridge, get into car just along the road and drive off. Not sure if the council's remorseless regime of parking zone expansion has put paid to that yet. Maybe google the council's parking zone map?

Cheers, any suggestions of where near Asda? Sounds like a plan

Yeah permits now I think

Woodingdean is a 40min walk over the Downs. Nice very new footpath in place too.

Slight amendment

If you can get there early enough then on Crowhurst Road by the side of Asda, there is limited on street parking opposite the storage company etc. If not Carden Hill, Carden Ave or any of the side streets up that end.

Not according to Brighton & Hove Council website, residential north of Warren Road is okay I think.

Last time I went to that pub, I think there were half a dozen “visitor” spaces limited to 4 hours. That was a couple of years ago, mind, so it may have changed again.

It’s also a long walk from there if the plan was to avoid the train.

. Only at the back of Bevendean I believe. Which would just be in the 40 minute walk I guess (I've got long legs/walk fast).

Not that I’m aware of. When I go I park there as that’s where my parents live but they have to give me a ticket to display outside their house. The one benefit of growing up in Moulescoomb

Fair enough. Might be wrong, but don't think OP actually specifically stated plan was to avoid the train. Tho I guess that may be what they meant. Like I said, used to always be plenty of free parking in the big wide streets north of the pub

There was. I’m pretty sure it’s time limited pay and display now to make a football match a bit tight.

However, as it’s a late kick off, it might work today as the restrictions only apply until 8pm. It’s not free any more, though.

I only mentioned it as I used to work just off Moulsecomb way, there always used to be loads of places to park, and it's hardly the M25, a few cars every other week wouldn't hurt anyone.
