Getting To The Mem
Bristol Rovers Football Club is committed to the development of sustainable forms of transport for both supporters and staff attending The Memorial Stadium, both for work and for leisure.
The Club is fully understanding that the changing of established travel methods will take time, and it is Bristol Rovers' objective to provide the necessary information to ensure all can make informed decisions regarding possible methods of travel.
With this in mind, the Club has developed a new travel plan ahead of the 2024/25 season. This travel plan sets out the targets and development opportunities available to begin the process of a move to more sustainable forms of transportation.
Bristol Rovers Football Club is a proud English Football League Green Club Member and will be working to meet the relevant standards, as supported by the EFL.

BUSES
The city of Bristol is well-served with frequent bus services, with many regularly running in the area surrounding The Memorial Stadium.
The Memorial Stadium is located within 50 metres of the nearest bus stops, which are situated on Filton Avenue, either side of the main vehicular access to the gound.
The Number 70, 72 and 74 bus services operate from these locations, with these combined offerings providing between seven and nine services per hour during typical matchdays.
Alternative bus services - Numbers 17, 75, 76 and 3X - are also available at the top of Gloucester Road; a very short walk along from Filton Avenue.
Bristol Rovers encourages supporters to use the following planner to arrange their visit to The Mem via bus travel.
TRAIN
The three nearest train stations to the Memorial Stadium are Filton Abbey Wood, Montpelier, and Bristol Temple Meads.
Filton Abbey Wood and Montpelier are both less than 3km from The Mem and are regularly services by trains from Bristol Temple Meads, and also receive trains from Gloucester, Cardiff Central and Taunton.

PARKING

Most supporters will find public transport quicker and easier than driving to The Memorial Stadium, and should be aware that parking in the local vicinity of the ground is often not possible.
Furthermore, parking at the Club itself is not available on matchdays. We would encourage all supporters travelling to the ground to use public transport wherever possible.
Visitors are also reminded that a Clean Air Zone (CAZ) is in operation in central Bristol, with non-compliant vehicles charged between £9-£100 to drive in the area.
Below is a map of the central Bristol Clean Air Zone.
