University Oval - Travel
HOW TO GET TO THE VENUE
Always allow more time than you expect to get to and from the venue on your match day and aim to arrive at least 45 minutes before the start of the game. Traffic congestion can be heavy for the majority of cricket events, particularly during peak commuter travel times. CWC22 recommends spectators use public transport wherever possible.

CAR PARKS
There is no regular on-site parking for the University Oval and it remains a popular area for parking for the Dunedin tertiary institutions so expect finding a nearby carpark challenging. We recommend arranging a drop-off or plan to park away from the venue and be prepared to walk 10-15 minutes.
Accessible parking for permit holders is available at the venue – please ask our friendly Traffic Management team at the entrance who can guide you to a spot.
OTHER
Bike racks are available at the entranceway to Logan Park Drive and also outside Sport Otago at the Sargood Centre (accessible from the Butts Road temporary entranceway)
