Mobility Bus from County Hall

A new minibus service between County Hall car park and Carrow Road has been launched on matchdays. This service, which is a collaboration between Norwich City, The Canaries Trust, Norwich Door to Door, Norfolk County Council, Age UK Norwich, Inclusive Norwich Partnership and Age Friendly Norwich, is for anyone who has mobility issues and may find it challenging to get from the car park to the stadium.

The bus costs £4 return (plus £2 for a personal assistant/carer if required) and leaves County Hall 90 minutes before kick-off. Supporters will be dropped off outside the Holiday Inn, which is also where they will be picked up from after the match. Supporters using the bus will be charged a reduced amount (£2) for parking, making their total cost the same as other car park users.

More information on this, as well as how to book, can be found on Norwich Door to Door’s website at the link below.
