Hi all,
Just as a thought, is Bradford safe enough to walk to the train station and back. I know it's a rough place and thinking a 10 minute walk would be fine? Anyone who has been before got any insight. Thanks

Looks by then Alexander may have jumped ship to PNE.

To visit Bradford by rail is absolutely fine - as others have mentioned. The walk up from the main city centre to the ground, by and large, is a straight line with plenty of places to grab a drink. You'll know which places you probably won't want to go in by the volume of home fans. There is also a steady police presence – both His Majesty's Constabulary and Attendance Police(TM).

It's visiting Bradford by road that you want to worry about. I'm pretty sure that 87% of driving licences held in Bradford were gained from a promotional packet of crisps or cereal. Absolute clownshoes on the roads... the ones they aren't digging up.

Yep, absolutely fine.

Never had an issues in the times I have walked it, or parked there.

Should be fine, unless you're inciting reactions.

I've walked from ground to town many a time.

They have a fanzone by an indoor market type thing in town with the outside a large drinking area, with music etc where lots of fans gather and top floor inside has a number of eateries of I recall.

Yes it’s fine. The City Centre is actually alright.

I think it's a bit like Blackpool where if you're there for the day and then getting the fuck out it's really not that bad. They've chucked loads of good money after bad on the area around the City Hall and done a pretty good job of it, for all the difference it'll make to the local economy.
