Heart of Midlothian and Inverness Caledonian Thistle supporters travelling to Easter Road Stadium on Sunday 2nd February 2014 are asked to allow sufficient travel time for the 12:15pm kick off. Turnstiles will open from 11:15am and supporters are asked to be in the Stadium 30 minutes before Kick-off.
A new automated access system at Easter Road allowing supporters to self-scan their tickets on entering the Stadium. Supporters are asked to insert the short barcoded end of their match ticket into the reader with the barcode facing up. If someone is entering into the stadium directly in front of you please wait until they are fully inside the stadium before scanning your ticket. Once you have successfully scanned your ticket a green light will then be displayed on the screen of the reader and the turnstile will release automatically. You should then push the turnstile to gain admission.
Safety Stewards will be on hand externally to assist supporters on the use of the system and in addition Stewards are located internally to check ticket price classification of the person entering the Stadium via a traffic light system at the turnstiles.
A short YouTube video of the system in operation can be seen below:
