City
of Manchester Stadium
Directions & Car Parking
The stadium is located in
the North East of Manchester.
From the South M6:
Leave the
M6 at Junction 19 and follow the A556 towards Stockport and then
join the M56 going towards Stockport. Continue onto the M60 passing
Stockport and heading on towards Ashton Under Lyne. Leave the
M60 at Junction 23 and take the A635 towards Manchester. Branch off
onto the A662 (Ashton New Road) towards Droylsden/Manchester. Stay on the A662 for around three
miles and you will reach the Stadium on your right.
From The
M62:
Leave the M62 at Junction 18 and then join the M60 Ashton
Under Lyne. Leave the M60 at Junction 23 and take the A635
towards Manchester. Branch off onto the A662 (Ashton New Road)
towards Droylsden/Manchester. Stay on the

Whilst Iain Macintosh informs
me; 'I find this an easier route to the ground; Leave the M60
at Junction 24 and take the A57 (Hyde Road) towards Manchester. Turn
right onto the A6010 (Pottery Lane). There are
quite a number of unofficial car parks on both sides of Pottery
Lane, costing around £5 per car. Pottery Lane becomes the
Alan Turing Way and goes right past the stadium on your left'.
Car
Parking:
There is some parking
available at the stadium itself which costs £5 per car. The East Car Park is
nearest to the away entrance. Please be aware that there is a
residents only parking scheme in place in
the streets near to the ground, which extends about
a mile out from the stadium. So if you want
to street park, it means parking further away and then walking to the stadium.
Some unofficial car parks have sprung up mostly charging around £5
per car. Terry Ireland a visiting Chelsea fan adds; 'Plenty of car
parking spaces were available when we arrived at the stadium
around two hours before kick off. However, getting out after
the game was a joke. It’s a little like a free for all and
took us nearly an hour to exit the car park and be on our way.
Meanwhile the unofficial car parks, all but 400 yards away, had
cleared, been locked-up and were long gone by the time we passed
them on our way home. And they cost the same to park!'
Peter
Llewellyn informs me; 'The
road links are busy even on non-match days so make sure you allow
plenty of time. The stadium is part of Sportcity so car users should
follow the brown Sportcity signs until near
the stadium'.
