So the Managing Director is a Chelsea season ticket holder. He hasn't had a lot to smile about when attending matches recently. Good job we've got a great team operating the externals. As well as managing the road closures and external traffic, the customer service and stewarding operation post match provides an exceptionally valuable experience of getting away from the area.

We are very proud of our team at Twickenham Stadium and the operations delivered there.As well as managing Twickenham Stadium's car parks, we also look after the entire route from Twickenham Rail Station to the Stadium, almost a mile, with our customer service stewards, particularly important whilst the re-building of the Station is taking place and protecting local roads for residents, and the road crossings and traffic on the busy A316.
Not content with delivering a great Brit Awards, the team were faced with a period of snowfall and icy conditions (as with all our venues) and had to deal with daily events and commuter traffic, ensuring all felt safe throughout this period.
