Travel Information
For those who need to travel by car, a link road with the M602 motorway will give drivers the option to approach MediaCityUK from either end of Broadway. The M602 provides onward linkages to major routes leading in all directions. M50 2EQ is the best postcode to use with your satnav.
Parking
There is very limited parking at the site. For detailed information, please see the driving and parking PDF on the MediaCityUK website.
It is easy to connect to bus services to MediaCityUK at both Piccadilly Gardens (25 minutes on the x50) and Salford Crescent (20 minutes on the CityConnect50). Dedicated bus routes offering journeys to Manchester City Centre, Salford, Altrincham, Sale and the Trafford Centre are available.
Please see Transport for Greater Manchester’s Journey Planner for more details and alternative bus routes.
The nearest Metrolink stop is Media City. Take the Eccles line to MediaCityUK and the venue is only a short walk away.
Metrolink runs every few minutes from early morning until late in the evening. However, the network is currently being expanded so please do check your route before travelling.
It takes a little over two hours to reach Manchester from London. Manchester also has direct connections to most major UK cities. Services arrive at Piccadilly or Victoria stations where passengers can connect with Metrolink trams for easy access to Media City.
