PARKING AT EBBSFLEET
Guidance from Ebbsfleet
For Tuesday evening's FA Trophy Third Round Replay at Ebbsfleet United, we have been advised by the Kent club that there is no parking for supporters in the club car park. Parking is available at Ebbsfleet International Car Park ÔCÕ and opens at 6-15 for football fans, where there is a charge of £3 but it is a secure car park and easier when leaving the game. We are advised that it is only a short walk to the ground. The game is not segregated so admission can be via the main entrance. Supporters are further advised to be wary of street parking especially under the railway arch near the ground.

I've been here twice and always been able to park in the road on the way down to the ground.

Me too. What are they telling us to be wary of?

The road that runs under the railway bridge opposite the ground ( Thames Way ) is , I believe, a designated freeway ( or something like that), therefore parking is not permitted, but there are no double yellow lines........so beware, you might get a ticket.

Cheers,

To confirm what Hirsty said, a couple of years ago the Highways Agency designated the roads around the station including the one leading to the stadium under the railway arch a "Clearway", this was probably under pressure from Eurostar and South Eastern Rail as lots of cars used to park there when using the station.

There are no yellow lines, cars parked there are likely to get a ticket or even clamped, this is why you were warned to be wary, the football club have an agreement with the station that fans can use Car Park 'C' when there is a game at the reduced rate of £3,

I parked near the railway bridge a few years ago and would probably have done so again. So thanks for the warning Hirsty and Peter D.
