Post Match Ground Exiting Arrangements Come Into Force Today

Last updated : 08 September 2017 By CNS Sport

New arrangements for exiting the Ricoh Arena come into the force for today's game between Coventry City and Port Vale and all other subsequent home games.

The Ricoh Arena by its design, has been a stadium, whereby it has been easy for opposing fans to confront each other after the game.

However, following a minor flare up after the home game with Newport County, new arrangements are being put in place to try and prevent any potentional flash points in the future.

This involves creating an away fan area which will restrict movement in car park B.

The map below shows these changes.

Pedestrian exit is shown is blue, vehicle exit from Car Park B (directly onto Jimmy Hill Way) is shown in orange and the new Away Fan Area shown outlined in black. There is also a new temporary barrier near the pedestrian bridge, again to control vehicle/people movement.

Supporters in the East Stand going to the Winding House Lane/Hen Lane area are advised to exit the stadium site following the route at the rear of the North Stand.

Supporters in the West Stand going to the Tesco Car Park/Subway are advised to exit the stadium site following the route at the rear of the North Stand and East Stand.

All other pedestrian exit routes should be unaffected – however stewards will be on hand to advise fans as to their easiest exit routes.
