Anyone know what is the state of the roadworks on the motorway approaching the stadium these days ? The last time I drove there in 2013 I missed the first half hour, swore i'd never go back for a midweek game. Don't suppose this will be a sell out so the traffic around the ground might not be so bad.
The M6 is a nightmare at the moment, with roadworks, speed restrictions, and if you're travelling late afternoon expect it to take around two and a half hours from Manchester. Coming back should do it in an hour 30.
Biggest problem is M5 J1 - J2 which has contraflow and speed restriction to 30mph. It's regularly backing up to J10 on the M6 travelling south. I'd set off early!!Anyone know what is the state of the roadworks on the motorway approaching the stadium these days ?

With prices being decent I reckon it will be a good support, even though its midweek.
