Many Thanks Chris There is also some 'street' parking near to traffic lights approx 200 metres or so from the stadium (heading away from the City) it's a bit closer than the 'One-stop' car park ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just a short walk over the road from one stop. There is a 4 hour parking restriction but they allow longer for speedway spectators. I normally park in One Stop and never had any issues as its safe and easy to access, find it helps leaving a speedway programme or similar on front seat in case some over officious parking attendant appears but most Wednesdays they seem to assume anyone over 4 hours is at Speedway. Highly unlikely you'll be more than 4 hours anyway. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The One Stop does have enormous speed bumps, it's worth knowing that before you go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CUFC_Brummie 132 Posted August 7, 2019 (edited) Only meeting I'll make this season as I'm back over briefly from Canada, was concerned about the weather earlier in the week but it's turned out great, no excuse for the track not to be in great nick, two full strength teams and what should be a close, well fought meeting, thoroughly looking forward to it . Come on the Brummies! Edited August 7, 2019 by CUFC_Brummie 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
