TRAVEL TO HEADINGLEY BY CAR

If travelling by car there are clear permanent, and at times additional temporary, direction signs to lead you from the motorway and major road network to the Headingley area.  There are two basic routes to reach Headingley, the first being from the south avoiding the City Centre, and the alternative being from the north via the Leeds Outer Ring Road.

 
From the M1 South and the M62 East and West
From the M1 South leave at Junction 43 to take the M621 as far as Junction 2:
From the M62 West leave at Junction 27 to take the M621 as far as Junction 2.
From the M62 East leave at Junction 29 to join the M1 northbound to Junction 2 of the M621.
At Junction 2 of the M621 follow the signs for HEADINGLEY STADIUM along the A643.  These signs will lead you along the Leeds Inner Ring Road [ A58(M)] to the A660 which is signposted to SKIPTON and HEADINGLEY STADIUM.   Signs along this route will indicate when you have reached the Headingley area and on test match days additional temporary signing will direct you to the free Park & Ride car park to the north of Headingley at Beckett Park.

From Bradford, Keighley and all areas to the north
All routes into Leeds from these areas lead to the Leeds Outer Ring Road, the A6110-A6120-A63.  Along the Outer Ring Road signposting to HEADINGLEY STADIUM will lead you to the A660 Otley Road and from here southwards to the Headingley area.
Car parking at Headingley
In order to protect nearby residential areas and ensure safe access for emergency services on-street car parking around Headingley stadium is restricted especially on match days.
Although off-street car parking at the stadium is limited to pass holders during cricket test matches extensive free parking is available at Becketts Park to the north.  Temporary additional signing during test matches leads motorists to the Becketts Park site from where free buses can be taken both to the stadium and back to the car park at the close of play.
For rugby and county cricket matches off-street car parking at Headingley is still limited.
