Now you’ve had some time to get settled in, we thought it would be useful to remind you about parking and other travel options.
We don’t recommend you bring your car to campus. We encourage you to walk or cycle in if you’re able, or to use local bus services. If you do have to drive, please be reminded about parking arrangements on and around campus:
- There is no parking at Bay or Singleton Park Campus for students between the core hours of 8am and 4pm, Monday to Friday*.
- Out of Hours permits are available to students at a cost of £20 per year, allowing parking on campus outside of the above core hours (I.e., between 4pm and 8am, Monday to Friday and on weekends).
- Outside the core hours of 8am-4pm, Monday to Friday, those without an out of hours (or other valid) permit, including visitors, can pay to park on campus using the app or available pay stations – see pay to park pricing and further details on our website here.
- ANPR systems are in operation at the Bay and Singleton Park campus. Parking charge notices will be issued to:
Those parking on campus between 8am and 4pm, Monday to Friday without a valid permit.
Those parking on campus on weekdays between 4pm and 8am, or on weekends, without paying to park or being in possession of an out of hours (or other valid) permit.
Information about parking off campus is available here.
We advise you not to park in the local residential areas or on local business premises.
Please be respectful of our neighbours and park considerately and responsibly. It has come to our attention some students are parking in resident-only permit bays or non-designated parking spaces and sometimes exceeding time limits in some parking bays. Traffic enforcement officers regularly patrol the area so illegal parking could result in a fine.
We would also like to remind you there have recently been speed limit changes, so please be aware of and follow all designated speed restrictions.
* Student permits to park on campus during core hours will continue to be made available to students meeting certain criteria. Up-to-date information is available on our travel webpages.
