How do you get to see thec ccs everyday?
You be driving to Newport road from bridgend?
It would be easier to get off at Cardiff gate, instead of j33.

Someone else said that but I don't see how that would be quicker?

JOP when you come off cardiff gate on the M4 go straight down onto the A48 then take a tuning off what we call the llanedeyn roundabout which will take you straight onto newport road

it really is the best way . it will knock off about 20 minutes on your journey

Depends where youre going, (parking in Knox Road is only £3 all day if you get in before 9am.) I get off at 33 and go all the way round to the prison. Easy.
Youre saving a fortune on the bridge anyway!!!! :ayatollah:

And I will be saving loads on travelling! :ayatollah:

I will try both to be certain as when I travel to Cardiff Gate now its seems so far when I could be cutting across past the City stadium ;)

Anyway, either way should be better that the 1 hour and 30-45 mins journey I currently do :D :ayatollah:
