The most direct option on matchdays is the shuttle bus service running from Liverpool city centre to the ground. Walking from the centre takes around 25 to 30 minutes along a flat waterfront route, which many fans prefer. Merseyrail to Kirkdale station is another practical choice, with a walk of roughly 15 to 20 minutes to the ground. Driving is not recommended on matchdays, as road closures and limited parking make it an unpredictable option. Liverpool's city centre is compact and well connected, so arriving early and exploring before kick-off is easy to manage from any of the main transport hubs.
