Parking applications
Car parks around the University are for permit holders only, with different permit types available. Staff and students must apply for a permit before bringing a vehicle onto campus.
Permits run concurrently with the academic year starting from 1 October to expire at the end of September. You will need to apply for your permit annually unless it has been issued for an extended period, e.g. disabled parking permit.
Permit applications for 22/23
Please note that applications for Category B PAYG and Salary deduction are now closed.
A salary and R permit applications remain open.
Parking on central campus is in high demand and permits are criteria based. Certain permit types have limited availability and may not be available to new applicants throughout the year.

Some car parks are temporarily closed or have limited spaces - check the map.
