Directions to York College
See our Travel and Transport page for bus information.
York has direct links with all parts of the country. The station is two miles from the College but there is a direct 'Park and Ride' bus every eight minutes.
We have parking for motor bikes and cycles. Spaces for mopeds and motorcycles are clearly marked on both levels of the car park. There are cycle racks at the front of the College building and covered cycle storage in the rear car park. There are plenty of new 'safe cycle' lanes on main routes to the College. If you're bringing a moped or motorcycle on to site you must apply for a permit. See the link below for further information.
Parking
The College has limited parking space and courteous, safe driving is expected at all times. This car park can get full early in the morning. Please do not park in local residential avenues such as Chessingham Gardens.
York College and University Centre is a ‘permit only’ parking site.
Please familiarise yourself with the car park rules as there are financial penalties if you breach them.
Staff and students must obtain a permit before parking. Students are not eligible for a car parking pass until they have held a full licence for at least twelve months, however there is an appeal procedure which is detailed in the link below.
Dropping off and Picking Up Students
We appreciate that some students need to be dropped off and picked up from College by parents/carers. Increased traffic on site at the end of the college day creates a bottleneck on the access and entry road to the campus which is delaying some staff and students from leaving campus to undertake their caring responsibilities. Please may we ask that due consideration is taken during this busy time of the day, and where picking up on campus is not necessary alternative pick up points are identified.
Disabled Car Parking
There are a number of disabled car parking spaces adjacent to the main entrance. A College permit and a valid pay and display ticket (with an occasional use permit) must be displayed.
Disabled parking permits will only be given if the driver brings along proof that they are a Blue Badge holder.
Site Plan
The College building is arranged on five floors. Please use the links below to navigate the different plans.
