Car Parking at the University

There are five car parks on campus with a mixture of permit and public parking.

Blue Badge Holders can park free of charge.

Each car park has a letter, corresponding to its position on the campus map (see link on the right).

*PLEASE NOTE*

When special events are on (e.g. Graduation, weekday Open Days), parking is extremely limited.

We strongly recommend that to avoid disappointment, public transport is used to reach campus at these times, unless travelling by car is essential.

Blue Badge Holders can park free of charge. In order to access the disabled bays, please take a ticket on arrival and visit the Attendants lodge with your Blue Badge in order for the ticket to be validated, or use the intercom (where you may need to give details of your Blue Badge).
