There is no parking available for fans at the stadium, except accessible parking for Blue Badge holders (see Accessible Parking below). We recommend the use of public transport, as the stadium is well served by multiple links. It's worth checking National Rail and TfL on the morning of the game, as weekend engineering works are common in this part of south London.
