Parking on-site at the American Museum, including the clearway by the overflow car park, is reserved for Museum visitors. The parking at Bath Cats & Dogs Home is for their visitors only.

There is no on-street parking near the University. All roads have either double-yellow lines due to the narrow roads, or resident parking permit regulations. Please park considerately to help strengthen our relationship with our local community, and ensure that essential vehicles can pass through.

Any parking infringements on public roads will be dealt with by the Local Authority and the police.

Campus parking permits for students living on campus or in BA1 and BA2 postcodes are only issued in exceptional circumstances. Please use public transport, or follow our guide to cycling and walking to the University.

Use the paid car parks on campus if you need to drive to campus or the Sports Training Village.
