Travel to work

The University provides options for more affordable travel and is committed to supporting and promoting travel by sustainable means . To support your travel choices we provide reduced price on-campus car parking, a Cycle to Work Scheme, annual interest free travel loans and a car share scheme.

Since the pandemic and the introduction of hybrid ways of working, a number of travel providers have introduced more flexible ticketing options. These may be more affordable for staff only on campus for a few days a week. Visit providers' websites for more information.
