Location of Venue:

Map Ref: SK 525413

Lat & Long: N 52:58:02 W 1:13:10 (for those arriving by helicopter !)

The exhibition venue is very convenient for the M1 and several other major trunk routes.



Travelling via the M1:

Exit at Junction 26, onto the A610, towards the "City Centre". At the next roundabout, take the right hand lane and then follow the A6002 (Woodhouse Way), towards "Stapleford" and "Beeston", following road ahead at new roundabout by Business Park. After about 1½m, at traffic lights, turn left onto the B6004 (Strelley Road) and then take 2nd right into Wigman Road (30mph dual-carriageway - you've been warned !). Harvey Hadden Sports Complex is ¾m on left.




Travelling from the north via A60 or A614:

Follow Nottingham Ring Road (dual-carriageway and sometimes signed as A6514). At the traffic light junction (two after A610) turn right into Beechdale Road (also dual carriageway, but 30mph) Swimming Pool and Ambulance Station now on your left. At roundabout follow road ahead (Hollington Road) and at next roundabout again follow road ahead (Wigman Road). At the mini-roundabout, also follow the road ahead. Harvey Hadden Sports Complex is on the right.



Travelling from the east (A52, A606) or south (A60, A453):

Follow the Nottingham Ring Road (A6514). At the traffic light junction after A609, turn left into Beechdale Road (by swimming pool, just over railway bridge), then as above.



Travelling from the west (A52):

At the City boundary, roundabout junction with A6005, turn left into Wollaton Vale. At traffic light junction with A609, follow road ahead on to A6002 (Bilborough Road) to next traffic light junction and turn right onto B6004 (Strelley Road), then as for M1 traffic above). Alternately, continue on the A52 and turn left onto the Nottingham Ring Road.



If you still get lost - well, what can we say ? ! …..



PLEASE NOTE: Due to a decision by Nottinghamshire County Council, we may not be able to erect any temporary direction signs in Nottinghamshire between the M1 (A610) and the City boundary (A6002) - but we are still negotiating ! Our usual signing within the City of Nottingham is unaffected.
