The first match of the football season at the Racecourse is only a few days away, so make sure you’ve planned your journey.

City centre parking can reach capacity pretty quickly on matchdays, but there are plenty of other affordable options to get you to the game.

Park and ride

Free parking and just £1 for a return ticket to the stadium (50p for children and free if you have an over 60s concessionary travel pass) and, with 143 spaces, there is plenty of room.

Arriva North West & Wales run five buses before the match and five after, running every 20 minutes to Mold Road, right outside the ground.

Have a look at the video below to see more of how it works.

If you buy an adult day ticket to get to the match it’ll cost just £2 when you show your match ticket – that saves £3.60!

No need to worry about getting a parking space and you can even pop into the city centre for a drink or a meal afterwards without having to think about how long you have left on your parking ticket.

Cllr David A Bithell, lead member for environment, said: “Continued increase in the number of supporters attending home matches has placed additional pressure on parking and the surrounding road network on matchdays.

“These affordable travel options give supporters a convenient alternative to driving directly to the stadium, while also helping to reduce congestion and inconsiderate parking in nearby residential areas.

“The new £2 Arriva day ticket is a welcome addition this season, alongside our popular Ruthin Road park and ride service. We hope supporters will take advantage of these offers and help us make matchdays safer and more enjoyable for both fans and residents.”
