Turf Moor Parking
Morning, I need to ask opinions on parking at the Turf. Normally I park near the centre and wander down to Jimmy Mc where my season ticket is. This week however I’ve had an awful bout of vertigo so walking far has been a bit of an issue. Whilst it’s eased up quite a lot it’s still not 100% better yet so I’m looking at parking closer to the ground (Jimmy Mc ideally). What’s it like for parking on the side streets behind Jimmy Mc/Park View etc. Will aim to arrive about 1.30pm.
Cheers! UTC

The parking restrictions on the roads won't be in play today with it being a Monday, iam sure you'd find a space in that area at that time

Re: Turf Moor Parking
Public car parks are free on Bank Holidays and Sundays.
There are a lot of private car parks around town like Tesco & TK MAX - you could get a penalty notice on these.

Re: Turf Moor Parking
But the yellow lines are only for Saturday and Tuesday, so won't matter how many wardens are aboutAmbleClaret wrote: ↑Mon May 08, 2023 10:01 amNot true,they work Bank Holidays, I know from personal experience.

Re: Turf Moor Parking
If you're arriving at around 1.30, then there should be free spaces in the side streets that you mention.
Then a very short walk to the ground.
Hope you're OK.

Re: Turf Moor Parking
As mentioned the yellow lines are not enforced today but it gets busy around 1:30. Few laps of the streets near Lyndhurst Rd and you should find somewhere within walking distance

Re: Turf Moor Parking
I suffered with Labrynthitis and it can take many weeks to recover and driving isn't a good option as it can occur at any time.
If you are going to drive can you give out the colour, make and model of your car and your intended route?

Re: Turf Moor Parking
My recommendation would be Towneley, normally plenty of room in the first car park on the right as you drive in, downside you have to pay, and it’s not the easiest to get away but it’s a 10 min slow walk to the ground.
The other alternative is you can park in the cricket club behind the stand, I normally park there if I have to leave early for work. It’s £7 so not the cheapest but it’ll save walking. You’ll need to get there early, anytime after 1:30-1:45 it could be full. Again though it’s not the best for getting away, unless you leave early but I doubt anyone will be leaving early today.

Re: Turf Moor Parking
We park up Brunshaw Road - it’s amazing how often cars park across the dropped kerbs up there. Only once this season have I seen them ticketed, which is a shame!AmbleClaret wrote: ↑Mon May 08, 2023 10:11 amTrue,but you'd still get booked on a double,or dropped kerb.

Re: Turf Moor Parking
this is what I’m seemingly having a bout of. Been a week now, symptoms are better but still not feeling great. Luckily, it won’t be me driving down so no need to panic

Re: Turf Moor Parking
I feel for you mate, it is horrible. I once sat on the shopfloor at work weeping because I had a bout, couldn't stand and was totally confused!colne-claret wrote: ↑Mon May 08, 2023 10:44 amthis is what I’m seemingly having a bout of.

Re: Turf Moor Parking
Suffered vertigo badly on occasions together with horrendous sickness....the Epley manoeuvre seems to sort me out. Try it!
Re: Turf Moor Parking
We always park at Townley (Woodgrove carpark)
£2, huge carpark can always park and not far to walk to the ground.

Re: Turf Moor Parking
BPPV is the form of Vertigo which is caused by crystals moving about in your ear canals. If you have that, and not a viral/bacterial Vertigo then the previously mentioned Epley manoeuvre can fix it instantly. You can do this yourself at home following YouTube instructions. My doctor just said he didn't know how to do it.
