However, there are several NCP car parks located close by, including two located on Cambridge Street. To access these car parks, at the Paradise Circus island, immediately after you pass the exit for the A456 (Broad Street), move into the left lane and take the first left into Cambridge Street. Loading & Unloading To access the Conservatoire’s car park (for loading and unloading only), pass under the bridge and turn right as if to access the Copthorne Hotel, and then right again into the underground road. Follow the road around to the left to gain access to the Conservatoire’s car park, which is at the end of the road. A goods lift is available. From M5 South-West Leave the M5 at Junction 3 and travel towards Birmingham City Centre along the A456 (Hagley Road) for 5 miles to the Five Ways island.
