From the South leave the M1 at Junction 43 to take the M621 as far as Junction 2.
From the M62 West leave at Junction 27 to take the M621 as far as Junction 2.
From the M62 East leave at Junction29 to join the M1
Northbound to take the M621 as far as junction 2

These signs will lead you along the Leeds Inner Ring Road A58 to the A660 which is signposted to Skipton and Headingley Stadium. Signs along this road will indicate you have reached the Headingley area and on Test Match and One Day International days additional temporary signage will direct you to the Park & Ride car park north of Headingley at Beckett Park (LS6 3PW).
