Parking at Colchester.

[GAZBLADE]

I got my match and car park ticket for the Colchester game and noticed that there are just 700 car park spaces at the stadium for both home and away fans.
I just wanted to give any Blades who are planning on driving the heads up on booking early to avoid missing out on parking nearby.

From the fans guide -

There 700 car parking spaces at the stadium which cost £6. These can be pre-booked online, with the parking permits sent out to you by post for no extra cost. In the event that the car park is full, then the club direct fans to an overspill car park located on the nearby industrial estate (about a ten minute walk away from the stadium) which costs £8. There is also an extensive residents only parking scheme in operation around the stadium, so you may need to journey to over a mile away, before you can find a legitimate parking space. Mick Hubbard adds; There are a number of local businesses in the area also offering parking for around £5'.
