On campus parking

Permits

Our limited parking spaces are allocated equitably and strictly according to agreed criteria. There are no reserved spaces. Holding a permit does not guarantee the use of a parking space.

To apply for a permit to park on campus, please read the eligibility criteria below, then complete the application form. You may be required to submit supporting documentation, in which case you should print your completed form, with the required documentation, and return it to the Estates Office, Tremough Campus.

Eligibility criteria

Applications will be considered alongside the following criteria, and the issue of a permit will be made in this order of preference. Meeting the criteria will not guarantee the issue of a permit and qualifying applications may be deferred to a waiting list.

(a) Staff and students who are disability ‘blue badge holders'.

(b) Staff and students living outside a five-mile radius of the Campus. (Zone A) Normal fees apply.

(c) Temporary disablement will be given consideration, but permit issue and parking will be subject to availability and confirmatory doctor's note. Normal fees apply.

(d) Staff and students who live inside the five-mile radius but more than one mile from a Zone A bus route. Normal fees apply.

(e) Staff or students who, because of shift working can demonstrate a need for a parking permit although they live within the five mile radius. Normal fees apply.

(f) Staff or students who have a demonstrable need for a parking permit due to family commitments. Normal fees apply.

(g) Other circumstances solely at the discretion of the Campus Management.

In all cases demonstrable car-sharing will be given priority over solo car use within the same category (b-e above).

Applications received for categories (e) - (g) will be assessed by a panel comprising representatives from Tremough Campus, University of Exeter, University College Falmouth, FXU and Estates. All permits are subject to availability.
