Merry Christmas to all Bradford City fans!
We hope that you have a great time on Christmas Day and can arrive early for our cracker of a home game against Peterborough today (Tuesday 26 December 2017).
The Club really does appreciate the efforts that fans make to get to the stadium as early as possible and we are hoping everyone will do the same on Boxing Day as we are expecting a bumper crowd for the game.
The club wish to inform supporters that due to our big home attendances, the pressure exerted on surrounding roads on a match day is now greater than ever and as such has led to some issues pre and post-match with the flow of supporters on foot and the movement of match day vehicular traffic.
We have worked with the police and listened to feedback from our fans and have made a decision to close Midland Road for every Sky Bet League One fixture.
The road closures will be in place from 1:00pm until 5:30pm for a 3:00pm kick off and 5:30pm until 10:30pm for a 7:45pm kick off.
Midland Road will be closed from its junction with Thorncliffe Road right through to its junction with Cornwall Road.
The lower section of Holywell Ash Lane will also be closed from its junction with Lupton Street.
Access to the disabled parking spaces in front of Rear Rock Terrace will still be allowed from the Thorncliffe Road closure point.
All sections of the stadium will be open with the standard turnstile configuration.
