Black Caps vs. England, ODI
Travel by public transport to Eden Park for the
Black Caps vs. England, One Day International, on Saturday.
There is no free travel with a game ticket to the match. However there is a range of transport options and fares and people should check in advance and make plans to travel early. Plan your journey at www.at.co.nz or by phoning 09 366 6400.
Traffic will be heavy in the area around Eden Park, some roads will be closed and areas close to the stadium are restricted to parking for residents only. People not going to the game should be aware there is potential for delays in the area.
Travel by train to the
cricket:
Additional trains will operate before
and after the match. These services will call at all
stations between Kingsland and Britomart.
A $5 special
‘event ticket’ is available for use on trains for adults
and children. It is valid for travel on the day from 11am
until the end of services, to and from Eden Park. It is
recommended to pre-purchase from ticket offices at
Britomart, Newmarket, New Lynn and Papakura.
Go by bus to the cricket:
Passengers
travelling from the northern suburbs are advised to catch
the Northern Express to Britomart. This service will
operate to a normal scheduled timetable. Other bus services
will also operate to a normal timetable with standard fares.
Travel by car to the

Some roads around Eden Park will be
closed to the public. Limited mobility parking areas are

depending on crowd size and movement, access may be
restricted at the discretion of Auckland Transport and the
