Welcome to Sheffield

Cars, Parking and Transport

"Get a timetable for bus services you will use reguarly. And international students, remember: in the UK, buses are not always punctual!" Pilar

All Students

International Students only

Cars

Most students do not need to bring a car to Sheffield/drive to and from University.

Cars & Driving Licences

In Sheffield most students do not own or run a car, but live within a twenty-minute walk of the campus.

Cycles

Most Halls and purpose-built self-catering units have secure cycle stores.

National Travel

There are two ways of travelling nationally: by coach or rail.

Car Parking

Car parking on the central campus is by permit only; availability is severely limited.

Safety on the Roads

Pedestrians do not have right of way to cross roads except at pedestrian crossings.

Public Transport

Most of you will rely on public transport to travel. The City of Sheffield and surrounding district is well served by an extensive network of bus services and the Supertram.
