Figure image
Rugby fans are encouraged to beat the scrum by using the Enderby park and ride to get to Tigers v Bath at Welford Road this Saturday.

Supporters can use the service to arrive in plenty of time for the 2.30pm kick-off and take the stress out of trying to find a parking space.

The service runs to the city centre every 10 minutes from 7am to 7pm, Monday to Saturday.

A day ticket is £3 and a group ticket for up to five passengers travelling together is just £3.50.

Lesley Pendleton, County Council cabinet member for environment and transport, said: “With space for 1,000 cars, the park and ride from Enderby can help to ease some of the matchday congestion.

“The park and ride serves the main stop at St Nicholas Place in the city centre and then goes on to complete a city loop which includes a stop outside Leicester Royal Infirmary, just a short walk from the Welford Road stadium.”

Charles Rayner, head of stadium operations for Leicester Tigers, said: “The park and ride offers an easier and cheaper alternative to parking in the city, especially those travelling together as a group ticket is just £3.50.”

The park and ride service is a joint project between the City and County Councils and construction partners Tarmac.
