Tonights The Night

 

Stagecoach have been busy this summer with quite a few big events in the area needing buses. I have no idea quite how many people will be going to Home Park to see Rod Stewart (for those of you under 40 years old he used to be a rock star!) but as with anything up that end of the city parking is limited so the best way to get there is Park & Ride. There are three services  registered for the event:

There will be parking for disabled badge holders within the Milehouse Park & Ride site, every effort will be made to accommodate all disabled badge holders but spaces are limited. Please follow the AA signs on the approach to Home Park

FALCON COACH SERVICE

For those travelling from further afield please be aware of the South West Falcon which is an express coach service linking Plymouth with Exeter, Cullompton, Taunton, Bridgwater and Bristol 24/7, an option for concert goers to consider as there are return journeys from Plymouth at 23:30hrs and 01:30hrs.

It will be interesting to see how many buses it involves - if anyones does get any photos it would be nice to see them here for the record!
