Visiting fans are now being directed to park in the town centre multi-storeys, or in the official and unofficial car parks off Vicarage Road. The town centre car parks charge �2 for four hours, 50p after 7 pm. However, finding a space could be a big problem at Christmas, when football fans and shoppers are both out in force! The parking on Vicarage Road is at the Watford Grammar School for Girls (�2 blocked in, �3 not blocked in!), at the Laurence Haines School, and in Willow Lane by the General Hospital. Street parking is very limited indeed. One of the best areas to try is south of the ground, on Eastbury Road or the streets off Deacons Hill.
