Getting to the Gate: Sale Sharks - February 3rd

Tuesday, January 31st 2023

Here's everything you need to know about Getting to the Gate for Friday's Premiership Cup clash with Sale Sharks (7.45pm KO).

Clean Air Zone - NOW LIVE

Bristol’s Clean Air Zone (CAZ) is now live and fans are encouraged to check whether they will be affected. Non-compliant vehicles will be charged between £9 and £100 per day to drive through the zone in central Bristol.

Although Ashton Gate itself sits just outside of the zone, some roads near the stadium are within it and thus we encourage fans to carefully plan their journey. Full details on the CAZ including maps, a schedule of charges and a vehicle compliance checker can be found at www.cleanairforbristol.org/caz/.
