For all of you planning on coming to the Bristol show this weekend, I thought I'd offer a bit of local travel advice.
You have no doubt been to the official site and scanned through the travel recommendations................
..............and may have come to the conclusion that "its just easier to drive and park nearby".
BE WARNED. We are in the midst of a major city centre redevleopment in the immediate vicinity of the show and parking in the area is at an absolute premium (as well as being extortionate!).
I would advise anybody heading in to the show to seriously consider catching the train, ensuring you get to the Bristol TEMPLE MEADS station (which is about a 10 minute walk away). Do not head to Bristol PARKWAY station which is miles away!!!!
Alternatively, the park and ride scheme from UWE (as mentioned on the site) is actually very well run and will save you a lot of hassle.
Anyway, hope this helps.
