For the most well attended away game this season, some of the 4,500 making this trip should find the following guide useful.
Directions
Official Club Route (this is signposted from Junction 14 of the M1):
Leave the M1 at Junction 14 and head towards Milton Keynes. Go straight over the first roundabout and at the next (where there is a Total Garage on the corner) turn left onto the V11 Tongwell Street. Proceed across one roundabout and at the next turn right onto the H8 Standing Way (A421). Continue alone the Standing Way going across a number of roundabouts. On reaching the Bleak Hall Roundabout turn left into the V6 Grafton Street. At the next roundabout, turn right and the stadium entrance is further down on the left.Potential alternative/quicker routes
From the North:
Leave the M1 at Junction 15 and turn right on to the A508 signposted Stony Stratford, follow this road for 14 miles, until you come to a roundabout at the A5, take the left turn heading south. After a few miles leave the A5 at the junction of the A421, as signposted by the AA stadium:mk signs. Or if you prefer more motorway driving, then continue south on the M1 to junction 14.
Take the A509 towards Milton Keynes. The stadium is signposted from the first roundabout that you come to, however, I got lost on my visit following these signs. Here is an alternative route; at the first roundabout take the third exit on to Portway (signposted A509 (A5) Central Milton Keynes). Keep straight on this road crossing nine roundabouts. You will see the Hockey Stadium over on your left and will pass a McDonalds outlet. At the next roundabout, turn left onto the A5 (signposted Dunstable/London). Leave the A5 at the junction of the A421, as signposted by the AA stadium:mk signs……
From the South
Leave the M1 at junction 13 and take the second exit (A421) which runs parallel with the M1 for a mile before bending left. After 3 miles as you approach a roundabout on the edge of the city take the second exit, this is called H9 Groveway, stay on this road going straight over 4 roundabouts, you will now approach the roundabout over the A5, and the stadium is in front of you slightly to the left, take the second exit. The entrance to the stadium is first left at the traffic lights.
If you are approaching the stadium from the South along the A5, then leave the A5 at the junction of the A421 and you then really can't miss it.
Alternative Parking
There are 2,000 car parking spaces at the stadium, which costs £5 per vehicle. Otherwise you can park in the Denbigh West industrial estate. After passing the stadium entrance on your left, turn right at the next roundabout, called Granby roundabout, and then take the next turn left, and immediately left again onto the industrial estate called Denbigh West. Pedestrian crossings towards ASDA will allow access back towards the ground.
By Train
The nearest station is Bletchley which is around about two miles away from the stadium. There is a taxi rank outside otherwise you can embark on the 20-25minute walk to the stadium. The station is served by trains from London Euston & Birmingham New Street.
Turn left immediately you come out of the station building and continue to and down the steps. At the bottom of the steps turn left go under the railway bridge. At the roundabout by the Park pub turn left onto Saxon Street. Keep straight on this road and you will eventually reach the stadium. However you will need to cross over to the other side, as there is only one path beside it. You will pass Bletchley Bus Station on your right and then the Enigma Pub. Go straight across the double mini roundabout following signs for the A5 and you will see the stadium over on your left.
From Bletchley Station the MK Metro Route number 7 operates to ASDA adjacent to the Stadium every hour from Buckingham Road (Saturday day times) or every 20 minutes from Bletchley Bus Station. The bus stop for the number 7 is located in Buckingham Road; turn left immediately as you you come out of the station building and continue down the steps into Buckingham Road. The bus stop is just to the right.
More likely though you will end up at Milton Keynes Central which is around four miles away. There is a taxi rank outside the station, or there is a bus station located just across the plaza out front, where there are a number of services that pass near to the stadium.
From Central Milton Keynes Railway Station Service 7 towards Fenny Stratford, Lakes Estate or Newton Longville will operate every 20 mins (Mon – Sat Daytime) and Service 7E towards Bletchley/Fenny Stratford will run Hourly (Mon – Sat evenings) direct to Stadium MK, stopping adjacent to the stadium entrance. Journey time approx 20 – 25 mins. Also bus number 32 also operates hourly from the Central Milton Keynes Station to the Stadium (Saxon Street/Dawson Road) but in one direction only (i.e you cant get the 32 back to the Station).
Trains to Bletchley take 2hours -2hours 30 mins, cost £28-60 off peak return
Pubs
The nearest pub to the ground is the Beacon which is around a 10 minute walk away, in the nearby Mount Farm area. With the stadium entrance in front of you and Asda over to the right, then the pub is located on an industrial estate behind the stadium. From the back of the stadium cross over the road and go down Dawson Road which is in front of you. At the bottom of Dawson Road turn right into Bond Street and the pub is down on the right, situated next to a small lake.
There are also a few pubs in Bletchley
