Stewart_Aberdeen Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Going down for a gig during the week and we're just driving down and back on the same day. Any tips for parking if we arrive early afternoon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 There's car park just behind Ashton Lane, although it is always quite busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart_Aberdeen Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 Cheers, think that's the one I found when looking around the same time as posting. Will try there first and if that's full I'm sure we'll find somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about a 10 minute walk away but it's just straight along Great Western Rd so easy enough to get to. Not sure what time it closes mind you. Your other option would be street parking on the other side of GWR from Oran Mor as you head towards Queen Margaret Drive/Maryhill. I'd imagine you'd be able to find something there easily enough.

Website says parking available during Subway opening times so might be worth a look as well. Would that be the nearest station to Oran Mor for heading in to town?

If you can get parked in the Ashton Lane car park that's your best bet. Edited March 1, 2016 by Fairbairn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will check out Ashton Lane first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a couple of years ago when I was pregnant but I parked in there for a hen night. I ended up with a ticket and a fine. It appeared to be a pay to park till 6pm when I looked at the sign. I was there 7.30 ish to midnight. But in closer inspection post fine in very small print there was a £2 'overnight fee' that I had not seen. Obviously I would have paid it had I known. Hen night ended up costing me £50! It may be different again but I was so annoyed! Edited March 1, 2016 by laurataylordu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart_Aberdeen Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Haha certainly wasn't me. Ended up using the subway car park and since it was all over just after 10pm we had plenty time to head back to the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
