Car parks access: planned rail strike on Thursday, 18 August

16 Aug 2022

Arrangements for on-campus parking during the latest rail strike

During the planned rail strike on Thursday, 18 August, all colleagues will be able to park free of charge at the following University car parks:

  • Booth Street West Multi-storey
  • Cecil Street
  • Charles Street Multi-storey
  • Dilworth Street
  • Dover Street

The barriers at Dilworth Street and Dover Street will be set to raise automatically on approach, so permit holders do not need to swipe their cards for access.

If you park at Cecil Street, Charles Street and Booth Street West

At Cecil Street, Charles Street and Booth Street West, we ask that staff members take a ticket on arrival and then visit the Attendants at the Lodge/Gatehouse/Cabin where they will be asked to show their ID card to get tickets validated. This can be done on arrival, it does not need to be done just before exiting.

If you are a permit holder at the Aquatics Centre car park

Free parking will also be available for permit holders only at the Aquatics, where the upper barriers will be set to raise automatically. Staff who do not normally park at the Aquatics car park will not be able to park at the Aquatics car park free of charge.

  • If you have any issues gaining access to the car parks, please use the intercom or call 0161 275 2990.
