On these days, we request that anyone who normally uses the affected car parks above finds alternative parking spaces available on campus. 

Re-marking of road linings and car parks

Works will also be taking place throughout the summer months to refresh road markings across various sites. This includes those recently resurfaced and some other areas where lines have faded, including some car parks.  

These works should cause minimal disruption and there will be traffic management as required where works are taking place on live roads. 

Pot-hole repairs

A number of areas have been identified with deteriorated road surfaces and work will be carried out throughout the summer to repair these before they deteriorate further.  

Any changes to bus services and diversions shall be advertised in advance via the bus operator and our university Hopper Bus webpages.
