Find parking near University (Birmingham) Station

There is no student parking at University Birmingham Station and very little at Birmingham University. Students who would like to apply for a parking space will need to either have a blue badge, live more than 10 miles away during term time, have dependents under the age of 11 living with them during term time and more than three miles from the university, or be registered as a carer to disabled family members at their permanent home address.

Visitors are discouraged from coming to the university by car, but may (often with difficulty) find a place at the North East multi-storey car park off Pritchatts Road, or at two other car parks on the same street – but most parking spaces are reserved for hotel guests, staff members and other residents.

That leaves Queen Elizabeth Hospital as the nearest car park and, while you can park there, the charge is £3.10 for the first hour, space is often limited, and you will be left with a considerable walk.

The solution offers itself: park elsewhere, for example in the substantial multi-storey car parking facilities at Birmingham New Street railway station, and catch a train to University Station.
