Football club park and ride at Coventry Airport
20.01.08
A new park-and-ride facility for Coventry City Football Club supports is to open later this week at Coventry Airport. It will replace one based at Jaguar's research and development site at Whitley, which is to close as BT is to start work on developing the site.
Up to 1000 spaces will be available in a car park at the airport in Siskin Drive. It will be up and running for the FA Cup tie against Millwall next Saturday (January 26).
Charles Rayner, director of operations at the Ricoh Arena, said: 'There are 50 season ticket holders who use the Whitley site along with 200-300 other vehicles on match days. I hope they will now use the facility at Coventry Airport.'
Brian Kavanagh, managing director of Workforce Direct, which runs parking and security at the airport, said: 'It is really good value for money and allows fans to travel to and from the Ricoh quickly and safely. We have plenty of space available and it will continue to open two hours before kick-off and one hour after the game.'
