Local information

 

Travel

There is a tram service which runs to the south of University Park campus along University Boulevard, and has a regular service east to the City Centre and west to Beeston and Toton. 

Several bus services have routes along the southern perimeter (along University Boulevard) and to the north (along Derby Road, A52) of University Park campus, providing frequent services to the City and western surburbs (Beeston, Bramcote, Stapleford).

The Skylink service operates from the City Centre to East Midlands airport via the University Park campus (University Boulvard) and takes approx. 45 minutes. Skylink Express offers a faster service to the airport, via Trent Bridge and Clifton.

Eating out

On conference days, lunch will be provided, along with refreshments during morning and afternoon breaks, and we would also like to invite you to join us for a celebratory dinner on the penultimate evening of the Summer School (Wednesday 26 June). There will also be an informal supper together at the end of our first day (Monday 24 June).

There is a small (Co-op) supermarket next to campus on Woodside Road, at the west entrance of the University Park campus, where you can buy food/other essentials, and there are lots of local restaurant and take-away options, and many establishments offer home delivery. Nottingham has a wealth of fantastic restaurants, offering a wide range of cuisines at different budgets, and we will be happy to recommend our personal favourites!
