Stadium car parking

Just wondered how easy is it leaving car park 3 or 4 after the match. Thinking about getting a season pass. But if it’s a nightmare will pass.

Sorry, I can’t comment on that as I’m in the Robin Park car park & go into the the south stand bar after the game, then the fans zone. Traffic has usually calmed down by that time for most games.
I have a pass for car park three and usually Stadium Way becomes a one-way road after the match. As I am heading to the M6 to travel south to get home I will be in the left lane to turn left out of Stadium Way onto Scott Lane and it's quite quick. Not anything like 30 minutes. I am also not heading back into Wigan which on the few occasions I have done this is a nightmare. I am heading to Orrell via Marsh Green to get onto the M6 southbound there and it's much quicker than going through town.
Dave when you are on stadium way why don’t you go straight across then turn left at the roundabout your straight onto Spring Road go to the very end turn left at T Junction onto Gathurst Rd go to the lights turn left at lights onto Orrell Rd it takes you straight to the m6 you may find it easier or not I know my friends go that way to to M58 to LiverpoolDaveO wrote: ↑Fri Mar 24, 2023 5:28 pmI have a pass for car park three and usually Stadium Way becomes a one-way road after the match.

When I used to travel back home via Hindley Green I'd turn right out of Stadium Way and that always took much longer.
That’s probably because the road at the top of Challenge Way, Walthew House Lane, wasn’t opened because of the heavy lorries going down it, but it’s been opened for a few years now & it’s quicker because of less traffic after games.DaveO wrote: ↑Fri Mar 24, 2023 8:55 pm Sat Nav came up with turning left out of Stadium Way then right at the mini roundabout ages ago so I do as I am told!
When M6 has been shut due to the bloody smart motor way installation I have had to go to J26 so heading back to towards the town. Not happened often and thankfully not closed southbound tonight though it is northbound on that stretch.
