Most of the trains from Chester and Liverpool Lime Street serve the station at Bradford Interchange which unfortunately is around a 25min walk from the Stadium.  Bradford Forster Square is nearer to the Stadium (about 10 minutes walk) but is mainly served by trains from Leeds.

 

If travelling by train to Bradford Interchange the alternatives to walking are to take a taxi which costs around £3.50 or catch a bus from the bus station which is adjacent to the railway station.  Bus Nos. 622,623. 626 and 662 will get you to the Stadium.

 

Trains from Liverpool Lime Street to Bradford take between 2hrs 15mins and 2hrs 45mins and usually involve changing at Manchester Victoria (although sometimes an additional change at Manchester Piccadilly is also required).

 

Trains from Chester to Bradford take just over 3hrs on average and usually involves two changes of train.

At the Stadium

 


Car Parking:  There is a reasonable amount of street parking around the Stadium. 

Where to Eat:  The Stadium is in a somewhat isolated area of the City on the top of a hill so the majority of eateries for fans are in the City Centre itself.  There are no shortages of Indian takeways in the centre of Bradford as this is something the City is famous for with over 200 separate outlets in and around the City.

Where to Drink:  The nearest pub to the Stadium is the ‘Carlton’ which is a few minutes walk from just behind the Kop Stand and whilst there are a few hotels also around the Stadium that have bars, the best choice for an alcoholic beverage is again the City Centre.
