Travel and Parking

With a community of around 10,000 students, travel and the associated impacts – congestion and pollution – are a key issue for the University to manage. The University is working hard to ensure it supports sustainable travel options through its Travel Plan, including subsidised Uno buses and a Park and Ride facility. Limited car parking is available at Waterside Student Village with strict criteria to manage the supply and demand. To see if you qualify for a termly permit, please visit the travel and parking page. Where successful, parking for Waterside Student Village only is charged at £100 per term and you’ll only be able to access Car Park 3, Waterside. We also run a liftshare database allowing you to find or offer lifts with fellow students.

The residences are located on the main Waterside teaching campus.
