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

both of which have clear signs reading Memorial Stadium. Once through
this area you join Muller Road and should continue to drive along

junction ignore the sign and turn left into Filton Avenue where
the ground is located almost immediately on the left.

of traffic lights immediately past a small shop called Satellite
Warehouse and before Polypipe Timber take an unsignposted left turn

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
