    £2 max fare on any single trip on West Yorkshire buses thanks to our failed actress Mayor, Tracy Brabin. Its just about the only thing she's ever achieved, including her stint in East Enders.

    I paid £395 for Burlington Street carpark 2 years ago. Rip off, as it didn't even cover cup games, but needed it to help my dad get to some games sadly for him, it's too much for him now at 95 years of age, so back to parking on Canal Road now for me and family

    Thought it was a government scheme across the whole country

    It might well be, but the failed actress turned plastic politician seem to be taking all the credit gor it, whilst throwing her deputy under the bus to deal with crime.

    Question I always arrive early on match days and park on midland road for a quick getaway towards queens road. This Saturday I have to pick somebody up on Sunbridge road post match and I wondered if there is parking the other side of the ground on Midland road. I know there used to be but haven’t been on there for ages

    As you know parked on Rebecca Street/Dyson Street/Paradise Street and the NBH car park for over 25 years. No problem at all. Currently park on the Gaynor Street area. Straightforward to get to and on the return as there is only a little traffic on the end of Thornton Road and outside the Odeon, then relatively easy to get onto Manchester Road-Mayo Avenue and onto the M62. Just don’t leave anything of value, visible in the car, not even pound coins for other car parks

    Park on Sunbridge Road itself, an easy walk to and from VP.

    As l have said I have parked in that area since last century! My car has been untouched. I have never personally had any problems. My kids who have now long reached adulthood, came with me. Rather than re type everything here is what l posted.

    If you can drive towards town on Midland Road (not sure if it's shut) then turn right at the end, up Hamm Strass, right at the lights and first left at the Sheesh Mahal down Wigan Street on to Sunbridge Road.

    We often park on Preston Street, quick pint in Fighting *@?$ pre game.
    Never any issues getting parked, and your straight on to Sunbridge road from there

    We couldn’t go today. Hubby has arthritis in his knee so walking is more or less out of the question. The GP is going to give him a steroid injection, but he has to wait till the next clinic.
