Travel to hotel:

From the bus sta­tion Not­tingham Coach sta­tion:

When you leave Rail­way Sta­tion; turn left and go along Sta­tion St when you will pass Tesco Ex­press and Star­bucks cafe turn slight­ly right and go along Car­rington St; at the end of the road you will see Broad Mash bus sta­tion (pic­ture in the right cor­n­er). From here take IN­GIGO BUS (bay 3) or i4 bus (bay 4). Leave bus at Len­ton, Hillside bus stop. (To be 100% sure that it is good bus stops tell the driv­er that you want to get to the Jubilee Cam­pus. It is im­por­tant to tell the driv­er your de­stina­tion be­cause driv­ers don’t stop on each bus stop and be­fore your stop you should ring a bell, but in situa­tion when you are a foreign­er when the driv­er know when you want to leave he will stop). In UK you are buy­ing a tic­ket at the en­tran­ce to the bus. The driv­er will ask you where are you going and on that basis he char­ge you (norm­al one way tic­ket cost around 1.75£; it very im­por­tant to have coins or low nomin­al cur­ren­cy. Driv­er doesn’t like to make you chan­ge from high nomin­al cur­ren­cy).

Once you leave the bus, fol­low the route in­dicate on the map below:

Travel to Not­tingham:

By coach: For those who will travel from Heathrow air­port to Not­tingham, the best way is to take bus (http://www.nationalexpress.com/ ). BE CARE­FUL, if you book to travel by bus choose the right Ter­min­al from Heathrow air­port and as a de­stina­tion the Not­tingham Coach sta­tion. This will take you from the air­port’s exit and bring you straight to Not­tingham.

By train: Not­tingham has a di­rect con­nec­tion with the Lon­don St. Pancras sta­tion. You can book your tic­kets from there: http://www.national­rail.co.uk/

If you choose train, keep in mind that the ‘ad­vance’ tic­ket means that you must travel with the itinera­ry you have booked, while with the ‘off-peak’ tic­ket you can travel at any itinera­ry at this route that is in­dicated ‘off-peak’. Usual­ly, ad­vance tic­kets are cheap­er, so you’ve bet­t­er book an ad­vance tic­ket.

For those who would like a short break to Lon­don, be­fore the workshop: In this case, try to find a hotel out­side the city centre if you want rea­son­able prices! Lon­don has a labyrinth of un­derground lines and you can go al­most every­where with that. There, you can find in­for­ma­tion about trans­por­ta­tion in Lon­don: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/

Travel in Lon­don:

From Heathrow air­port, you can travel to the centre of Lon­don eith­er by the un­derground (cheap but slow – around 45mins) or Heathrow ex­press (ex­pen­sive but quick – around 15mins).

More de­tailed in­for­ma­tion:

Not­tingham is centred in the heart of the Uni­ted Kingdom, its loc­a­tion in the East Mid­lands pro­vides easy ac­cess to numer­ous trans­port links.

In­ter­nation­al air­ports

The Uni­vers­ity of Not­tingham is with­in easy reach of sever­al of the co­untry's lar­gest air­ports:

  • East Mid­lands Air­port (EMA) - 13 miles / 21km

  • Man­chest­er (MAN) - 66 miles / 106km

Buses from Not­tingham train sta­tion

For Uni­vers­ity Park cam­pus, the bus stops closest to the train sta­tion are Broad­marsh bus sta­tion (for Trent Bar­ton’s In­digo ser­vices) or Canal Street (for Not­tingham City Trans­port’s 13 and 14 ser­vices).

For Jubilee cam­pus, take any of the ser­vices li­sted above that start from the city. They de­part from the northern side of the city centre, so you may want to use the free Centrelink bus to get around the city centre.

Use­ful links: http://www.nctx.co.uk/; https://www.trentbar­ton.co.uk/ser­vices­/indigo

Taxis

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.

Avoid rogue and un­licen­sed taxi driv­ers - Not­tingham City Co­un­cil li­cen­ses two types of vehic­les - Hackney Car­riages and Private Hire vehic­les. If you get into a Private Hire car with­out pre-booking it (that is - you stop it or find it in the street) you may not be co­vered by in­suran­ce. Private Hire driv­ers call this 'fly­ing' and they know they are break­ing the law. If you are in­vol­ved in an ac­cident you will ex­peri­ence dif­ficul­ty in claim­ing for any damage or in­ju­ries.

From East Mid­lands Air­port

Buses

From East Mid­lands Air­port you can take Trent Bar­ton In­digo ser­vice, or the Not­tingham City Trans­port's Skylink ser­vice. Buses leave from out­side the Air­port Ar­riv­als hall.

Buses run every 30 minutes until mid­night, then hour­ly until 4am when the half hour­ly ser­vice re­sumes. The ser­vice goes past the Uni­vers­ity Park Cam­pus (on route to Not­tingham Broad­marsh bus sta­tion) and goes to Sut­ton Bonington (on route to Loughborough).
