College Road campus

College Road Bus Gate (March 2023):

A new Bus Gate has been installed on College Road, and there will be no access to the College Road site when approaching from Station Road. 

The University's College Road Car Parking will remain accessible as usual however, visitors, colleagues and students will need to access College Road via Beresford Street or Avenue Road. 

Please note that you will no longer be able to turn left when exiting our College Road site as this is where the Bus Gate will be in operation.

Traffic flow on Beresford Street is also being changed to one-way, eastbound only allowing a route down to our College Road site before reaching the Bus Gate.
