Apologies if fixtures but just seen this in the Argus, maybe useful info for some

'ALBION supporters can park for free at two major train stations this weekend.

Football fans travelling to The Amex to watch Albion take on Leicester can park for free at both Brighton and Lewes stations on the production of their digital match tickets.

Car parks will be open from 11.30am to 6pm and spaces will be limited'

Yep, with parking at the stadium so limited now, and effectively being one Park & Ride down now that Mithras House has closed, it should prove very useful indeed.

Presumably just a one off unfortunately.

GIven that both of these car parks rely on ANPR and are run by APCOA, who exactly are you supposed to show your ticket to?

Quite why they are advertising it being free as a benefit is a bit farcical. It's cheaper on a Sunday anyhow but will be guaranteed carnage now as cars always get stuck trying to exit when it's full pregame.

For anyone needing a close cheap alternative, the council building car park is sizeable and a short walk to the station.

Yep……Couple in North Street that are easier to get out of as well.

I normally park at Lewes but am coming direct from Birmingham after overnight at the T20 finals day, so Brighton is closer. Never parked at the station how quickly does that fill up, is there other car parks nearby or would P&R be a better bet if I'm not likley to get there until 12? Thanks for any advice!

Probably driving to Lewes on Sunday and taking the train to Falmer…providing there isn’t another demo that disrupts traffic

Just driven westwards and eastbound is back to past the stadium (from Kingston roundabout) due to some demo or other ..this M25 stuff is spreading

Am I right in thinking that there are no southbound buses along Lewes Road on Sunday due to the London to Brighton bike ride?

Another question on this.

How quickly does the racecourse P&R fill up? Suspecting Lewes will be carnage with all the restrictions about.

Doesn't tend to completely fill up. Also I think the on street parking nearby is not restricted at all on a Sunday.

Correct, all buses going up Coldean Lane then down Carden Avenue.
