A plan to ease the traffic

[Spliffman]

Why not charge people more to come in on the Wednesday?

e.g. £250=Wed.

£200=Thur.

£150=Fri.

I think that this would work, what about you?

SSSSSHHHHHHH!

You mean reward those who come later

i.e.

Wednesday - £185

Thursday - £165

Friday - £155

erm.... no, is this officially one of the most stupid posts going??

[BlackHole2006]

Of all the terrible ideas in the world this one has to be the most heartbreaking.

OK, calm down......get off the lads back!!! It's only an idea, a suggestion...

Well I'm not sure if it is a good idea or not. But I would find the money to come early, as I think many others also would because it is about being their for the whole festival for me. I can imagine it would be good e.g. for teachers who can't come on the weekdays!

It use to be that you could turn up at Glastonbury on friday morning, park up and get set up with very little fuss

then as the festival grew year on year, you had to turn up on thursday. Then wednesday. Now tuesday...... all this has been allowed to ease all the congestion that so many people can cause by arriving all at once.

you can not keep opening earlier and earlier.

So if traffic continues to cause problems, what you gonna do?

Limit the number turning up on any given day!

How? Stagged entry!

It's a crap idea. I am deeply offended by anyone who reckons it's a good idea.

It sounds like a good idea but its remarkably unfair, given the ethos of the festival its like saying the richer you are the more you can enjoy. The way it is now apart from hospitality everyone is pretty much the same, which is the way it should be. (Obviously outside of this there are other limiting factors) and if the price increase is only minor and not prohibitively expensive then it won't cut down enough anyway.

The only real way to cut congestion is as mentioned before and countless other options is to make public transport the number 1 way to travel.

We all get in eventually, it's not like anyone has missed the whole festival due to being stuck in traffic, the majority of folks are in by Thursday night so what's wrong with just being patient?

As I've stated before - Why not have different coloured car park tickets - perhaps 4 different colours each one with different entry times spread between 9am on Tuesday to 9pm Tuesday;

Randomise selection of ticketing , or better still give those furthest to travel the first entry time;

Its not to late to do this - and it will keep locals happier as no bottlenecks on Tuesday (was wednesday) of people waiting at the gate?
