Shrewsbury Town
Directions
At the end of the M54 continue onto the A5. After about seven miles, there is a traffic island at the junction with the A49. Bear left at this island still following the A5. At the next roundabout take the 3rd exit onto the B4380 (Thieves Lane). Continue along Thieves Lane going straight over two roundabouts and this will lead you into Oteley Road. You will reach the stadium down further down Oteley Road on the left.
There is a large car park at the stadium, holding almost 700 cars, however, this is for permit holders only. Parking is prohibited in the nearby Retail Park but restrictions on street parking in nearby residential streets have now been lifted. In fact if you go along Oteley Road passing the stadium on your right, then you will reach a residential area on your left where you can street park. It is then around a 15 minute walk to the away turnstiles.
For any fans wanting to make a full day of a Saturday at Shrewsbury, you can use of the Meole Brace Park & Ride site. It is only a 10-15 minute walk from the ground and is well signposted from the A5. For a £1-20 per passenger (return ticket), people can park at the site, catch a bus into Shrewsbury town centre, find plenty of food and drink outlets, and then catch a return bus back to the site. Journey time between 10-15 minutes depending on traffic volumes…..
Distance is approx 85 miles, 1hour 45 mins depending on traffic
