Travel notes
Good to know about The Etihad to Manchester.
The exit, pre-solved
Event-day road closures ring every big ground. The pickup corner is agreed before kick-off, clear of the ring, so you walk eight minutes while the crowd queues forty.
Matchday roads
Event-day closures ring every big ground; our drivers hold the current traffic plan and stage where the stewards allow cars to actually move.
Worth knowing
Post-match, Joe Mercer Way funnels everyone to the same tram — a car staged on Ashton New Road empties the campus quicker.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.
The The Etihad–Manchester transfer
This route joins a venue and a transport hub, and both ends have their own rules. The Etihad Campus loop road manages matchday traffic in rings — our drivers hold the current plan and drop at the blue gate you name. At Manchester Airport, your driver meets you in arrivals with the flight tracked — so the 11-mile run between them is the easy part.
Reckon on 20–30 min for the 11 miles, with 60 minutes of complimentary waiting and every toll inside the fare. Vehicles run from a saloon to a 8-seat van, so the same booking works for a couple or a whole party.
