GETTING TO THE GAME INFORMATION FOR SUPPORTERS TRAVELLING TO CELTIC PARK.
London Road Diversion
Supporters coming west along London Road then turning left onto Springfield Road should be aware of a diversion in place. The diversion takes you left onto Springfield Road then right onto Dalmarnock Road and then right onto the Gateway leading back to London Road. Disabled supporters, in particular, who require dropped off nearer the turnstile area can travel East on London Road towards and past the stadium. Essentially, the diversion takes you clockwise around the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome and is well signposted.
