The character of Stevenage
The New Town centre is built for pedestrians at its core, with the shopping precinct closed to vehicles and cars holding in the surrounding car parks instead. Stevenage Old Town, a mile north, keeps a more traditional high street feel with proper kerbside collection. Gunnels Wood Road and the business park area are wide, modern and easy to navigate, built for office traffic rather than shoppers.
- The New Town shopping precinct is pedestrian only — the car holds in a nearby car park.
- Stevenage Old Town, a mile north, uses standard kerbside collection.
- Gunnels Wood Road business park pickups use the site's own visitor parking.
- Station pickups are timed either side of the morning commuter peak.
