Directions
From the North, West and East:
Whether you're coming from east or west exit the M4 at junction 19 From the North, West and East

Exit at Junction 19 on the m4 and join M32. Travel along M32 for 3 miles and exit at Junction2 and take the third exit signposted Horfield and Southmead and follow the road through a division and a roundabout both of which have clear signs reading Memorial Stadium. Once through this area you join Muller Road and should continue to drive along it for 1.4 miles until you come to a signal-controlled crossroads. Signposted right is Horfield Health Centre and Library. At this junction ignore the sign and turn left into Filton Avenue where the ground is located almost immediately on the left.


From the South:

Exit the M5 at junction 16 signposted A38 Thornbury and Filton. At the roundabout head right signposted A38 Filton and join the A38. Travel along the A38 (Gloucester Road) for 4.3 miles as you enter the outer suburbs of Bristol. On your trip you'll pass Filton Airport on your right, the Royal Mail sorting office, an American Golf retail outlet on your left and the Royal George and Wellington pubs. At a set of traffic lights immediately past a small shop called Satellite Warehouse and before Polypipe Timber take an unsignposted left turn into Filton Avenue where you'll see the ground is on your right.

Parking
There are 15 pre-bookable car parking spaces located within 100 metres of the ground. Contact the Stadium Manager in advance. (01179 526130)
All areas around the ground are residential and therefore parking close to the Stadium is extremely difficult. It is possible to drop off however. There is a possibility that parking can be found in Muller Road and Gloucester Road, but this, too, is residential. A little further away, past the Wellington pub, there should be parking on Kellaway Road. Presumably there should be Municipal Car Parks in the area but this information is not available at the moment.


Facilities
As the Memorial Stadium is shared with Bristol Rovers Football Club, the facilities for disabled people should be of a reasonable standard. For all information relating to disabled facilities when the ground is in full use, contact www.nads.org.uk.

Seating
There 60 disabled wheelchair spaces at the Memorial Ground, situated in the West Stand and Centenary Terrace. 53 of the disabled spaces are set aside for home supporters and are situated in the West Stand and Centenary Stand. 7 spaces are set aside for away supporters, set in the Centenary Terrace. These seats are all under cover. No other areas in the Stadium are accessible by wheelchair users. Carers and family can be seated directly behind. Tickets prices for disabled supporters are priced at £13; however, the carer is admitted free of charge. There are no specific arrangements in place for the visually impaired, hearing impaired and ambulant disabled. If any specific help is required, contact the Stadium Manager.



Disabled Toilets

There are a total of 8 disabled toilets located close to all disabled supporters areas in the West Stand and Centenary Terrace. Alarm and key codes for these toilets are available from the stewards on duty.

Catering and bar facilities
Catering outlets are located close to the West Stand and Centenary Terrace. There are also a number of catering outlets spread around the ground.
