Motherwell travel guide

Getting there & parking

Fir Park is south-east of Motherwell town centre. Airbles is the nearest station, while Motherwell station offers more mainline services and a straightforward 20-minute walk. Drivers have official town-centre and private pre-booked choices rather than a large public stadium car park.

Parking options

Compare official and private matchday parking

Official matchday parking

Motherwell lists on-street parking where signs permit, plus public car parks at the Civic Centre and Motherwell Concert Hall, Parkhead Street and MacDonald Street. These are town options rather than guaranteed stadium spaces.

The Knowetop Primary School car park is sold by seasonal pass, not a casual matchday guarantee. Accessible parking and coach arrangements must be agreed in advance; current away guidance has also used Orbiston Street on a first-come basis.

Private matchday parking

JustPark has a dedicated Fir Park page with reservable private driveways and managed spaces. Current listings include options around Avon Street and a managed Asda Motherwell space within walking distance.

Retail parking is valid for football only when the reservation explicitly covers the match window. Read access instructions, enter the correct registration and allow for post-match road controls.

By train

Airbles is the nearest station at roughly one mile, served by local trains on the Argyle Line. Motherwell station is only slightly farther away and the club describes the walk as about 20 minutes.

Motherwell has broader services from Glasgow and the West Coast Main Line. Check the last return and allow time for the post-match pedestrian flow.

By bus or coach

Local buses serve Motherwell town centre, Airbles Road and the roads around Fir Park. Use the current operator journey planner because evening and Sunday frequencies differ.

Away coaches receive fixture-specific instructions and have recently been directed to the Orbiston Street area, with the final approach controlled by stewards and police.

Driving

From the M74, Junction 6 is the usual approach via Hamilton Road, Airbles Road or the signed diversion in force. Roadworks and matchday closures can alter the final route, so check the club notice on the day.

Residential streets around Fir Park are busy and restrictions must be respected. Navigate to a confirmed car park or booked private space rather than the stadium gates.

Current visiting-supporter travel example

After the match

Fir Park Street, Airbles Road and Hamilton Road become congested at full-time. Walking back to Motherwell or Airbles is often more predictable than waiting for a taxi beside the ground.

Travel, parking, ticket allocations and stadium procedures can change by fixture. Check the latest information from both clubs and the relevant operator before travelling. Guide checked 16 September 2026.
