Midland Road traffic after the match

The road closure would have to be at the junction of

 

We both know those pavements are very narrow when faced with huge numbers of exiting fans .

 

Whilst i agree in principle of pavements being used for walking on its not as simple as that. You've got 20,000 people exiting Valley Parade into numerous bottle necks around the stadium, one of those being the footfall onto Midland Road. Getting rid of match day parking on Midland Road would certainly help, although the bottle neck here seems to be at the bottom of Thorncliffe Road, once you get further down Midland Road it is possible to stay on the pavement albeit slowly on the right hand side.

 

Realism .

 

Loads of roads closed on Barnsley, surely we can close 1

 

Apologies if this has been mentioned but we already block of passage along Midland Road from about 12.45 pm to allow visiting coaches to assemble. Do we have special permission for that or is it a police requirement?

 

I parked in the train station carpark all the roads were closed all the wsy to the station , very safe and well organised

 

so extending Midland Road closure to the Sawmill after the game. I just hope the signs are clear at the junction with Queens Road otherwise you will get people coming on and having no where to go.

seems strange to only close Thorncliffe and Burlington from 1:45-2:30.

 

I thought it might be when they were expecting influx of people from North Parade?

 

Where have you read this @Loyalbantam, at least the powers that be are acknowledging there is a problem.

 

The wording is very ambiguous and to be honest I wouldn't assume anything with BCAFC & Bradford Clowncil
