    The club trying to take profit on off-site parking is the same nonsense as trying to break even on Valley Express - a way of reducing its own ticket revenue.
    I'm not in anyway way qualified in the running of football clubs
    That would have got you a position in the senior management team a few years ago!

    The Meridian Ground promoted by CAST as alternative parking solution early last season, did anybody on here use this option & is it still available this season?

    I’m up at Woodlands Estate, the end/start of the 291 bus route. No shops or train stations in the vicinity and the only issues we have with roads round here are the shoddy pothole repairs which need redoing far too often.  

    That and the fact that TfL moved the bus stop and stuck it across the drop kerb I had paid for years earlier. I regularly have to tell the driver to take his break - on the shortest bus route in London - at the other end of his route! 

    Very pleased that the backlash from this was actually listened to this time.

    In the meantime, parking at Windrush Primary School which cost £15 for the Watford game seems to have been reduced to £10 for Leicester

    Yes, it was only £10 for a couple of days.

    I'd be really interested in how busy / full it is on Saturday

    Coming to the game tomorrow - seems impossible to find a map and other than “the entire borough” and then later “apart from Plumstead and Shooters Hill” I have no idea where parking is and isn’t allowed street by street, area by area.

    Anyone aware of a clearly defined boundary?

    I think these are just proposals at the moment. I don’t think much will have changed since your last visit, as long as wasn’t donkeys years ago. Good luck.

    Is there any restrictions on Westmoor and Eastmoor street on match days?

    Greenwich Council had a map on there website before for the current CPZ that was introduced, should still be available as a PDF to download https://parkingingreenwich.commonplace.is/en-GB/proposals/charlton-match-day-parking-restrictions/start

    Where would you normally park/like to park, if you've driven to The Valley before?
    I/we can probably direct you if we know what "area" is best for you.

    In the past usually we’ve parked on Eastmoor / Westmoor or side streets and walked up from there. Didn’t know if that was still ok, if it’s outside the boundary but much busier now because people got forced out of other areas etc.

    𝐖𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐢𝐭! Breaking news tonight - Greenwich Council's so-called 'Sustainable Streets' parking charge proposals have been officially 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇𝐃𝐑𝐀𝐖𝐍 for Blackheath, Kidbrooke, Charlton and West Thamesmead, with the previous u-turn for Shooters Hill and Plumstead also re-confirmed (Woolwich is the only area where these proposals will go ahead, for now) Well done to everyone who campaigned against these disastrous proposals. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 - 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐯𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐋𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐌𝐚𝐲, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲'𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧
    Greenwich Conservative councillors will continue to oppose all attempts to impose Controlled Parking Zones in areas where they're not needed. For now let's celebrate some good news to end the year

    Power to the people.
    Now vote Labour out of Greenwich in May or they may be back to resurrect this scheme if they secure your vote.

    Ha ha I’d like to take some credit for that.
    The petition only had about 100 signatures before I put it on CL & other sites and we got over 2,000 in the end.
    So parking in Charlton should remain the same for the foreseeable.

    Why bother asking they will do what they want anyway.
    Nope we won.

    So does this mean we can park in the designated boxes on the streets around The Valley now as we used to  ?

    No, it means the scheme is not going to spread wider than it currently is

    Well Done CE, I think they should name a stand after you.

    Or a parking bay.
  • So how has this result improved the potential for parking near the ground on match days?

    Exactly…….but it ‘has’ prevented it getting any worse.
