The new car parking permits came into effect on Saturday 1 September 2018. Have you renewed your car parking permit?

2018/19 full permits are required for drivers parking on campus from Saturday 1 September 2018 to 31 August 2019.

For more details of the scheme, including how to apply, please refer to the ‘permit applications’ section of the Car parking webpage.

You can also contact the security team for further information (telephone: extension 13557 or email: parking@nottingham.ac.uk).

Alternative travel

Before renewing your permit, you may wish to consider alternatives to driving to campus. The University actively promotes low-carbon, healthy transport options through a range of initiatives, including:

• Discounted bus, tram and train passes
• Salary sacrifice schemes for purchasing a bike
• Investment in cycle facilities

If you’d like to find out more about these travel options for getting to campus, you can request a personalised travel plan. The plan will look at options for walking, cycling, driving, bus, train and tram – all in a single document. The results will be emailed to you, with maps and step-by-step directions. The plan also gives you access to an online tool to further explore and adjust the options.

If driving to campus is the only realistic option, then you may like to consider sharing your journey with others. It’s an easy way to do your bit to reduce both congestion and demand for parking spaces, and the University has a car share scheme specifically to help staff find others going your way.
