The End of on Street Parking within walking distance of the Etihad

[Vic]

St Anne’s RC church Carruthers street. About 10 mins walk. £7. Are you staying over? If not then maybe park at Newton le willows station 5 mins off M6 and get the train to Piccadilly (15/20 mins) - not sure of the times back but would save you an hour driving. Free parking at station.

When did you pay £7? Tenner.

Anyone know the official reason why all these parking restrictions have been put in place?

Apparently it was part of the planning conditions for the new concert venue, and City apparently readily agreed

Because Greater Manchester voters rejected Burnhams congestion charge.

So parked up at Ashton and got the metro absolutely packed but got to the ground in plenty of time, told my lad no parking near the ground. Came out after the game loads of cars parked on Ashton new road that’s where I normally park no double yellow lines wtf. Had to catch the metro the first one was packed and waited for another one. Looking out of the window no yellow lines anywhere, my question is who started this fucking rumour got home at 23-30 grrrr

People putting disabled badges in the mirror from when we've walked past in previous games!

Not a clever decision from City.

And now the 'secure parking' locally have all upped their prices.

Not so much double yellow, more of these.

The wife dropped us off on Ashton new road seen two wardens checking that the cars had blue badges before kickoff.
When she arrived early to pick us up she seen a different two doing the same Also what looked like a camera/video( not police van) van doing the rounds.CTID

Fuckers need to ticket all the coaches parked at the Asda bus stop. 216 wasn’t going to let anyone on (or off!) after the game. Fans had to stand in front of the bus to stop him driving away.

If they’re stopping private cars from parking round Phillips park, why can’t they agree to park the coaches round there???

Saw loads on Briscoe Lane in the 90 min bays, didn't see any with tickets. I expect the shithouse wardens were too soft to be out in the rain tonight but no doubt they'll be creeping around next time.
I fucking despise them, no decent person would do such a job, same level as bailiffs.

Manchester City Council hate motorists and therefore employ low-wage anti-motorist wardens.
I can accept parking restrictions in residential areas only; anything else stinks of an anti-motoring agenda. Unless it's an anti City fan agenda as the tram isn't up to the job and there are very few buses after the game.
I accept transport companies aren't going to pay lots of drivers to sit around for a couple of hours and then do a shuttle run to town, so people should be able to use private transport without egregious parking restrictions.
