RedM Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 I’ve just been near the stadium and although I’m not 100% sure I am pretty certain lots of the residents in the Raynes Road area have got together and parked on their road and the surrounding roads instead of their drives. There is still street parking ( yes I know it’s early) but much less than usual. The streets are usually empty a couple of hours before the match. Lots of cars are staggered so it’s awkward to get through, especially if another car is coming from the opposite direction. I remember once before the residents got together and did this, so it wouldn’t surprise me as it’s Cardiff and a early ko. Obviously the situation may improve by the time we are all looking for parking, people may go out to work, shopping etc but it certainly looked staged and deliberate to me. Just a heads up for those who park in those streets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 Just to add to this large parts of BS3 are now coned into single lanes because there is long term construction work going on around Bedminster Parade & Dalby Ave, it’s absolutely horrendous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People I know on Raynes park on the road as they rent their driveway out on matchdays! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They well may be, and just moved their cars last night so they don't have to de ice them. It was unusual to see so many cars on the roads so my aim was purely to advise people who are looking to park there. I'm at the ground now but had a lift to the park end of the ground so don't know how it is now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
