Salford's New Stadium
Posted: Tue Jan 10, 2012 5:44 pm
Seeing as I live in Irlam, I popped along on Saturday to watch the first match at the new Stadium. Leigh running out winners 36-12.
Watching the traffic at the end, the M60 junction is a nightmare. I would advise on a Friday night anyone going from Wigan to come down the M6 get off at J21 and follow the A57. 15 mins walk before the Stadium on the A57 is a MAKRO cash and carry on the right, could be a good place to park or else just past the Makro traffic lights is a big layby on the left. Rumour is the company whose entrance is on the layby (cant remember the name) are going to open up for parking. Stadium parking is to be paid in advance £5 plus admin fee. Manchester City Airport is also on the left before the Stadium entrance and there will be official parking there.
