TRAVELLING TO THE CONCERTS

BY ROAD -
Knebworth Park is situated just off junction 7 of the A1(M), near Stevenage, Hertfordshire.

There is a major traffic management plan in force to help alleviate traffic congestion. Regular traffic bullet-ins will be broadcast on HERTBEAT FM 106.7 and 106.9.

To minimise traffic congestion as much as possible we would strongly advise you use the following routes to the concert by road :

If you are travelling from south of Stevenage (driving north) you should leave the A1(M) at Junction 7, and take the first left straight into Knebworth Park.

If you are travelling from north of Stevenage (driving south) you should leave the A1(M) at Junction 8, and follow the concert signage for car parking in Stevenage. Do not use Junction 7, the roundabout is closed, you will not be able to turn right into Knebworth Park.

If you are travelling from the Luton and Milton Keynes area you should use the A505 to Hitchin, then follow signs for concert parking along the A656.

If you are travelling from the midlands/north west, you should use the M6 then A14 then onto the A1 (M), leaving at Junction 8, and follow concert signage for car parking in Stevenage. As stated above, do not use Junction 7, the roundabout is closed and you will not be able to turn right into Knebworth Park.

If you are travelling from East Anglia using the A505, turn off onto the A10 and then the A602 - do not attempt to drive through Baldock on the A505, heavy congestion is very likely there.

CAR PARKING
There are official car parks within Knebworth Park itself, and several in Stevenage close to the concert site. There will be a £5 advance charge (plus booking fee) per vehicle per day. We would strongly advise you to purchase a car park pass in advance of the concerts. You will be sent a car parking pass to stick in your windscreen, which will have directions to the concert on the reverse. This pass will allow our car parking staff to identify you as having prepaid and enable you to have priority parking. To purchase your advance car parking pass please ring the 24 hour credit card hotline - 0870 444 5209

DROP OFF AND PICK UP POINT
This is situated in Stevenage off Caxton Way near to the concert site. To access the drop off and pick up point -

If you driving from the north, come off the A1(M) at Junction 8, follow the concert car park signs into Stevenage, and at Sixhills Way roundabout then follow DROP OFF/PICK UP signage onto Caxton Way.

If you are driving from the south, come off the A1(M) at Junction 6, take the B197 into Stevenage, follow the concert car park signage to Sixhills Way roundabout then follow DROP OFF/PICK UP signage onto Caxton Way.

Customers then join the main pedestrian walkway to the concert site when dropped off, a ten minute walk to the concert site.

DISABLED PARKING
There is parking for disabled customers in Knebworth Park itself right next to the arena. Bear in mind that this can only be accessed by the northbound Junction 7 of the A1(M), therefore if you are travelling from the north you need to drive southbound come off at Junction 6 of the A1(M) then drive back up the north slip and come off again at Junction 7 into the park. Please then display your disabled parking badge clearly and you will be directed to the disabled car park.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PARK IN ANY UNAUTHORISED AREAS . A TOWAWAY SYSTEM WILL BE IN FULL EFFECT ON ALL CONCERT DAYS, AND WILL BE RIGOROUSLY ENFORCED.

BY RAIL -
All rail users should head for Stevenage station. There are extra trains running but places are very limited and you are strongly advised to book in advance.

NB - do not use Knebworth station for these concerts. If you get off at Knebworth Station you will be on the wrong side of the concert site, there is no entrance there so you will not be able to access the concert.

Please also be advised that after the concert all rail users will obviously wish to leave at the same time. Due to the numbers attending these concerts this is impossible, so please be patient at the station. The train station and surround will have a simple queueing system, has plenty of toilets etc outside, and will have a large security and police presence.

BY COACH -
There is still time to purchase coach only places for all the concerts. Coaches will have priority in leaving the car parks. To check availability and to book your coach places please ring the 24 hour Robbie Williams Coachline - 0115 912 9120

PEDESTRIANS
There is a designated pedestrian walk way from Stevenage, all pedestrians from the town, car parks, station etc enter the concert site using this walkway at Junction 7 of the A1(M). DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CROSS THE MOTORWAY AT ANY TIME! The junction is closed to traffic so you will be able to walk safely into the concert site. The walkway will be lit and stewarded at night from the concert site to the railway station and to the official car parks.
