TonyTonyTony Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 What’s the story with the Metrobus now ? Can I park at LA P&R and get the metrobus in ? Never understood why the huge car park at Long Ashton Park and ride wasn’t allowed for fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E.G.Red Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Doesn't really help those that travel from Yate/Emersons Green/Downend. There's a park and ride facility at Lyde Green that could be used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider_boy Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 further report by @Tristan Cork: https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/new-metrobus-wont-running-ashton-1854040 Tristan, when asking the council etc about it, we don't even need the metro bus to run on Sundays/evenings, we just need the P&R site to be available as a car park. I believe the council have previously said they won't as there isn't a safe walk all the way, but lots of fans park around that area anyway.
