Transport

Make your arrival and departure as convenient as possible.

The campus is located three miles to the south west of Coventry City centre and is set in nearly 300 hectares of natural countryside with lakes, woods and beautifully tended gardens in which you can relax and escape from the buzz of campus and city life.

Travel Information

Travel to CampusLink opens in a new window - Coventry prides itself on its excellent transport links.

We work with local bus operators National Express, Stagecoach and Travel de Courcey to encourage bus travel for students, staff and visitors and to make sure their services are developed to enhance public transport provision for the campus. The public bus service is excellent with buses up to every 10 minutes to campus from the train station and the city centre.

For those who enjoy a more active journey to and from work, there is a dedicated cycle route from the city centre to the University. If walking is your forte there is a beautiful tree-lined route from the city centre to the University, which is a safe and ideal way to begin your working day.

Additionally, there is a regular train service to major cities within the UK. Travel time to London is 60 minutes and there are trains to and from London Euston every 20 minutes during peak hours. Birmingham International Airport is 15 minutes drive from campus and there are regular bus and train services to the airport.
