Driveway A

Driveway A will be open prior to kick off in both directions to home and away supporters. 

A decision as to whether to close Driveway A at 1630hrs will be made based on the views of Staffordshire Police and any incidents that have occurred prior to or during the match near to or in the ground.

We will update our Social Media channels with any plan to close Driveway A before the end of the game so that supporters can make the choice to wait for it to open or find an alternative route home.  We would not expect Driveway A to be closed for any more than 10-15 minutes after the game ends.
