By Car The venue is 10 minutes from the A12 and can easily be accessed via Junctions 15, 17 or 19. Due to the close proximity of the town centre and Moulsham Road (a popular one-way shopping road leading from the town centre) all of the surrounding roads have 1 hour and resident permit parking only restrictions, with strict enforcement. There is however a public car park just across the road from the venue called “Moulsham Street Mixed Stay Surface Car Park” which is a pay and display car park which can be paid with coins or credit/debit card (minimum payment £3.90). The postcode given for the car park is CM2 0LG, although this can be inaccurate and I recommend you follow signs for Moulsham Street Car Park and view the Chelmsford Car Parking Map: http://www.chelmsfor...king_090407.pdf and look for car park 25 on grid G8. The Red Lion is located in grid F9 on the corner on New London Road and Anchor Street. Car Park Tariffs: Saturday and Sunday (08:00-23:59): Not Exceeding 1 Hour: Free Not Exceeding 2 Hours: £1.70 Not Exceeding 3 Hours: £2.40 Maximum Stay: £3.90 Evening (17:00-23:59): £1.00 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/187995-retro-gaming-revolution-1st-october-2011-chelmsford-uk/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
