That doesn’t seem so different to how it’s always been with the exception of Princes St extension up to the station. |  |

I get there quite early, but this doesn't feel like it's been well communicated ahead of tomorrow, and seems to get rid of a few car parks as can no longer be accessed - the SCC multi storey, the one on PR, access to the one behind the old Hollywoods, etc |  |

I think the EADT article about this says that those wishing to access or egress those car parks will be allowed. It will be bedlam Joe! |  | |  |

Definitely good to raise awareness as I'm sure many don't even know its happening. Won't impact me as I'm parking at my mates house and walking into town from there at midday for pints, but no doubt will scupper a few people! |  | |  |

There seemed to be a suggestion on the Star that those going to car parks will be let through - which presupposes a barrier, a check, and consequent tailbacks across town. |  |

Is it the same as the bus lane ‘experiment’ which did absolutely nothing, garnered negative feedback which they had to pretend they didn’t hear, and then seems to be still there for the occasional bus that might pass through. I don’t live in Ipswich but I suspect if one wanted to find one of the major reasons it’s such a dead and desolate town now, one wouldn’t have to look far from the council. |  | |  |

The experiment is basically to show that ingress and egress could be managed for (football) crowds up to 37,000 with small changes to the matchday logistics and manning. |  | |  |

The announced pre-match closures would impact coach arrivals and access to SCC and Portman Road car parks (the big one would only be open at the back from 1.30pm). This would be the case for 30 mins postmatch too. |  | |  |
