Car Parking for official coach travel for St Andrews (2 Viewers)

[aloisiwouldhavescored]

Have booked season tickets for official coach travel to St Andrews. Know I have already done this subject to death but missed the first game of the season as couldn't sort out car parking for the coaches in time.
Would reiterate that we are both 70+ and can't walk very far (last couple of seasons at the Ricoh we couldn't even walk from Ash Green to the stadium, had to take the car and park in Car Park A).
Anyone who went on the official coaches to St Andrews, how did you find the car parking, either at White Street or Ricoh shopping area?
Asking because we have had an email, asking us to commit to which of those 2 we want to pick the coach up from.
Any help appreciated.

Parking wise white street is better. Car park across from it. Tesco option is parking on foleshill road near the bridge and cut through the bus station

Is it quite safe leaving car in White Street car park? Last time we went there the area didn't look very salubrious, and although we only have an old car, it is the only one we have got.
Thanks.

I’ve never left my car there for away days but shouldn’t be an issue. People sometimes leave the car there for a week on holiday. be safer if other cars were there too I imagine.

Can you park close enough to the Ricoh on the road to walk?

Not really, hence why we had to park in the Ricoh itself in previous seasons.

What about parking in the Ricoh and paying? I don't know how much that is

Looks like it might have to be White Street then. Anyone else park in there for the coach travel for St Andrews?

I will find out about the Ricoh parking, but would be a problem when Wasps are at home or other functions of course. Trying to do it as cheaply as we could though, only paying £5pp on the coach.

Is the White Street car park the one where the coaches actually pick up? Used to go on day trips on the coach from White Street years ago.

Don’t think you can park your car on White Street where coaches pick up. It’s for coaches only.
