Hide AdCouncillor Kevin Johnston, Cabinet Member for Dynamic City at Sunderland City Council, said the ongoing Riverside Sunderland development will see “significantly higher volumes of people” visiting the city centre.
He added: “Allowing people to park their cars at the stadium for a small charge on non-matchdays will ease pressure on some of the existing city centre car parks and encourage people to choose active travel and more sustainable options like public transport as we move towards our 2030 Carbon reduction targets."
