Road Disruption - Emergency one-way closure of Alan Turing Way
From Friday 27 March until further notice, an emergency one-way closure is in place on Alan Turing Way, northbound only from the junction of Ashton Old Road to Grey Mare Lane.
To reach the arena, road users are advised to divert via Pin Mill Brow, Great Ancoats Street, Every Street and Ashton New Road.
Please allow more time for your journey, as roads will be busier than usual.
Congestion on the roads close to the Etihad Campus will start to build from around two hours before each match as ticket holders begin to arrive.
According to match day travel data to the Etihad Campus, consider adding the additional journey time below if your route is via any of the roads below:
- Alan Turing Way (both directions): plan an additional 20 minutes into any journey by road.
- Hyde Road (eastbound): expect an additional 15 minutes to be added to your journey.
- Mancunian Way (westbound): plan for an extra 10 minutes of travel time.
Travel times may vary dependent on a variety of factors, including whether it is an evening or weekend fixture and whether there are other events taking place in Manchester. We will continue to update this webpage as our knowledge of journey times develops.
Post-match, several road closures will be in place immediately to allow pedestrians to leave the Etihad Stadium safely. They will be in place for approximately 20 minutes. The roads affected are as follows:
- Ashton New Road between Alan Turing Way and Darley Street
- Grey Mare Lane between Ashton New Road and Alan Turing Way
- Merrill Street between Pollard Street and Ashton New Road
You can keep up to date about any roadworks that may impact your route.
Event parking
A strictly enforced resident parking scheme is in place on the streets around the Etihad Campus, which is made clear through on-street signage. You can see the areas where parking permits are required and further parking information on the map below:
There are thousands of car parking space available in the city centre on an evening and weekend, including car parks at the city's universities, such as Booth Street West car park off Oxford Road. The walk to the Etihad is approximately 30 minutes from Booth Street West car park.
If you have to drive, take a look at our city centre parking map (please note this map shows locations only) or consider using a Metrolink Park and Ride site.
Parking is also available at the official car park at the ground. In order to get a parking space, you must buy one in advance and this is done on a match-by-match basis. Pre-book your parking space.
