Travel 

Our green travel options provide a cleaner environment and a healthier lifestyle. Being a city centre campus, we are ideally located with good train and bus links from across Yorkshire and afar.  Bradford UNIBBUG makes cycling easier, with shower, storage and drying facilities available across our site.  Our campus provides electric car charging points available for use for staff, students and visitors. Our university fleet is currently being reviewed to be upgraded to electric following the commencement of the Bradford District Clean Air Zone.

Cycling

Across the university campus there are around 100 cycle parking spaces, including a number of covered and access-controlled cycle stores. The University has invested heavily in cycle paths and facilities on campus, with showers, lockers and drying cabinets available for use. Staff and students can join our cyclist user group UNIBBUG to keep up to date with any updates.

Public Transport

As a city centre campus, we have great public transport links including two train stations- Bradford Forster Square and Bradford Interchange. Both stations are within walking distance of the University and will take around 15-20 minutes.

Bradford Interchange is also the main bus station for Bradford, which makes public transport to our campus easy. The 576 Bradford-Halifax bus runs at regular intervals from Bradford Interchange and stops on Great Horton Road.
