It is bigger than that area unfortunately, for example it the whole of lord North Street and beyond to the east. While the street itself isn't going to be residents parking, yellow lines that apply to 11pm, so no one parking.

The daft thing is the new arena will have loads of one time visitors who wouldn't be parking on industrial and abandoned roads 1 mile away. There are no options for me that don't add 4 hours onto the round trip.
 
Ridiculous. Really are trying their best to put people off attending. Now you will have to stump up another 10+ quid a game for parking.

I park on a side street near a load of shithole industrial buildings so absolutely no residents are inconvenienced

I know it’s here

but thats a slightly clearer picture than those diagrams, it’s a clusterfuck, City will struggle for staff parking never mind fans.
 
I usually park near Ashbury's Station so doesn't look like that will be directly affected but presume many of the people who are affected will find new places to park - including where I normally park - so will be indirectly affected.
 
I raised this months ago with the city council and the club - it includes areas where stewards and other staff park (nowhere near houses). Has it gone through a Traffic Regulation Order yet, or just still being considered? On the east side the Zone would extend to the Tameside boundary - and on the north the boundary would mean no. 78 on one road would be in it, but not no. 80. Displacing parking from industrial areas to residential areas is just daft.
