Celtic Travel Information
The police have issued the following advice for travelling fans ahead of Leicester City's friendly fixture against Celtic on Tuesday evening:

Leicestershire Constabulary is committed to ensuring that visiting coaches can be escorted safely to the park up area: Eastern Boulevard, Leicester. This is some 500 metres from the ground and convenient for supporters wishing to attend the match and walk into the City should time allow.

The main rendezvous point will be Leicester Forest East services NORTHBOUND. From there groups of coaches will be escorted by police to the parking up area. It is envisaged that escort vehicles will be available from about 1300 hrs.

Coaches travelling south on the M1 should exit at Junction 21 and return on the northbound carriageway and enter the services.

Coaches travelling from the M69 should take the M1 Northbound direction and enter the services.

Coaches travelling north on the M1 should pass junction 21 and enter the services.

Those coaches that do not use this facility are urged to go straight to the parking up point where they will be received and marshalled. The drivers will be advised about the exit route for the end of the match.
