Getting to University Park From Nottingham and Beeston A number of public transport services run close to or through our campuses. By bus There are a number of bus services running from Nottingham to University Park Campus. The University of Nottingham provides free hopper bus services that run from the main University Park Campus to Jubilee, Sutton Bonington and King's Meadow campuses, and the Royal Derby Hospital Centre. A number of bus services run from the city centre to University Park, including the Eighteen, Indigo, Red Arrow, Skylink, i4, and 21 services run by Trent Barton, and the 35, 35a, 35b, 36 and N36 (night service), and 53 services run by Nottingham City Transport. 3 By tram If you are coming to University Park Campus from Nottingham Train Station, you can now hop on a tram which is accessible by the walkway leading from the station. Tickets must be purchased before boarding. The Toton line takes you directly to the University and visitors should disembark at the University of Nottingham stop, just outside the Lakeside park. By taxi There are taxi ranks throughout the city and immediately adjacent to the main railway and bus stations. The journey to the campus takes approximately 15 minutes. By train The nearest train stations are located in Nottingham City Centre or Beeston. Taxis and buses are available at both stations. From East Midlands Airport From East Midlands Airport you can take the Trent Barton Indigo service directly to the campus or the Skylink bus to Nottingham. Buses leave from outside the Airport Arrivals hall. You can also walk to the taxi rank on the terminal forecourt and take a direct taxi to the University. The cost of a single/one way journey is approximately £20. From M1 motorway Leave the M1 motorway at Junction 25 to join the A52 to Nottingham. Follow the A52 for approximately 4 miles, at the Toby Carvery roundabout turn right onto the A6464, turn left at the next roundabout to enter the University's West Entrance. Paid parking is available at the University’s Visitor’s car park. This is located between buildings 16 and 18 on the University map. Getting around Nottingham Nottingham and Nottinghamshire have lots of things on if you are staying for longer.
