To all supporters who attend games at The Victoria Ground please be aware that there are now parking charges at The Artrix that start at 80p per hour during the hours of 8:00am and 7:00pm everyday.
We have detailed below details of parking in the local area to help supporters on matchdays.
Council Car Park – entrance from Stourbridge Road. This is a pay and display car park charging 80p per hour. Although it is not displayed, you can pay for parts of an hour.
So for £2-00 you would get 2½ hours. CCTV is an advantage of parking here but beware of the Council’s strict enforcement as well as regular checks if you want to avoid a fine.
Parking is free after 7:00 p.m.
Rear of Mint Lounge: This is private land and no responsibility of Bromsgrove Sporting or Worcester City FC and we would ask visitors not to park here.
On-Road Parking Spaces are sometimes available on Birmingham Road but avoid parking on yellow lines as civil enforcement has recently been stepped up. Also please do not park in front of the houses on the service road off the roadway entrance at the Rear Car Park.
Blackmore Lane is worth avoiding especially in the evening as it gets quite busy and getting blocked in is not unknown. Victoria Road is also worth avoiding but if you do please do not double-park or block drive entrances.
Parkside Medical Practice - The car park is available to members of the public on Saturday from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. and costs just £1 all day. Entrance is on the Stourbridge Road left just past Parkside Hall.
Bromsgrove Retail Park and Aldi site - Opposite and next to the Victoria Ground. This is private land and we do not recommend parking here.
Shenstone Close - If you turn on to Burcot Lane at The Crabmill then immediately right down Shenstone Close, there are a number of spaces at the rear of All Saints Church Hall.
Walk down Shenstone Close then right at Blackmore Lane brings you out at the Hop Pole. A bit further to walk but convenient for a quick getaway up the Birmingham Road.
The Artrix/HoW College Car Park - If you are heading up or down the A38 then this car park is quite convenient. Access is by the Premier Inn/Brewers Fayre Guild restaurant on Slideslow Drive. Park near the Artrix (post code B60 1GN), walk down the pathway at the end of School Drive and you come out at the Hop Pole. About 10 minutes from the ground. However charges of 80p per hour from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day have recently been introduced
