We’re really excited to welcome you to campus, but we just wanted to make you aware of some improvement works that the Council is currently carrying out on Market Street, meaning that there is no through vehicle access at the moment. As the Council works may create some additional traffic on the evening of the event, please factor this into your travel plans.
Our campus is very close to the Metrolink and Bus Stations, so we encourage the use of public transport on the evening of the event. However, if you are travelling by car, please be aware that there is no visitor parking available on our campus. There are public car parks available across the town centre, and the nearest pay and display car park (free after 6pm) is located on Trinity Street (BL9 0BT), and is currently only accessible via Angouleme Way.
Pedestrian access along Market Street remains open throughout the works, although temporary pavement closures or crossings have been introduced.
