Where can't I park or drive on match day?

Question

Accepted Answer

Around a stadium, venue or route the planning committee can mark out traffic-free zones on public roads or other areas. Every entry point must have a notice saying access is limited to accredited people and vehicles (s20(9)). Driving in: you may not drive into or within a traffic-free zone unless you have an accreditation card for you and the vehicle (s20(10)). An access control officer can ask for it and refuse entry without it. If your car is there without accreditation (s20(11)): you can be ordered to move it. If the owner or driver isn't readily available, police or a peace officer can remove and impound it, and the owner pays the costs of removal and impoundment. Parking offence (s44(1)(u)): parking without the written authorisation of the event organiser, authorised member or VOC commander in a traffic-free zone, or anywhere marked as a no-parking area inside or outside the stadium or venue, is an offence carrying a fine and/or up to 10 years' imprisonment.
