I've just bought a Uni car park ticket. Very surprised they're still available. Website says 25 places left.

Safe yourself a load of worry and hassle by just heading straight to the racecourse. Hang back if you can at the end, have a cuppa or visit the club shop then walk up to (hopefully) a much-shortened queue.

Edit: the buses leave from the coach park opposite Bennetts Field. Use the steps there, not the ones opposite the Away turnstiles

Nothing to do with drivers and guards , signallers are out so they have managers working the panels and can’t handle the normal day to day running of trains so only doing it 7am to 7pm and only cover the main panels (main line)

Thanks for that. We've got an 8 year old with us so want to keep it as smooth as possible. A good result and all transport hassles will be forgotten!

Am I correct in thinking there will be some trains, just a very limited service, between London and Brighton? I took a look at the BR app which shows quite a few trains per hour .....which cannot be correct?

I believe there to be a very limited service on both Southern to/from Victoria, and Thameslink to the city, but nothing like several trains per hour.

I'm sure there are others on here who will have more exact details.

Resigned to having to use the 700 bus to get to Brighton on Saturday. I know the free travel zone starts in 'Worthing', but does anyone know exactly where 'Worthing' starts? I can see there are several stops along the seafront to the west of the pier - Heene Terrace, for example. Or does the free zone start at Marine Parade? Anyone know?

According to Realtime Trains (https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/se...22-10-08/0500-2359?stp=WVS&show=all&order=wtt) for Brighton this Saturday

2 tph Brighton to Hove (and vice versa)
2 tph Brighton to Victoria (and vice versa)
2 tph to London Bridge (and vice versa)

Roughly between 07.00 and 18.00 (in some cases less than that, last train to London leaves at 17.40)

My guess would be, although l'm far from sure, that the Travel Zone kicks in somewhere in central Worthing, so the Marine Parade, bang opposite the pier is probably as central as it gets.

If you get on the bus somewhere in west Worthing, then it will hardly cost you a fortune to the stop where the free travel zome starts anyway.

I have to do precisely that if l go down to Brighton on the 17 for footie. Pay for a single ticket to Henfield, which is the northern edge of the zone.

Roadrunner said:

Sure, but as I'll be driving from LA to Worthing before picking up the bus I might as well park within walking distance of where the free zone kicks in. I'll probably play it safe and head for Marine Parade.

Did I see somewhere that they were laying on extra shuttle buses back to town from the A27 bus stop post-match ? Or did I just dream it ?
