Parking on the Aston University Campus
On-campus parking is available from 6am to 10pm and is booked and paid for through the JustPark app, with rates starting from £2.20 to £6 daily (aston.ac.uk). This is the main official option for drivers heading to the campus at 12 Aston Street.
Visitors should book spaces in advance through the university's visitor arrangements. Accessible parking is available at locations P1, 20 and 24, as shown on the campus map (aston.ac.uk). Disabled visitors therefore have designated campus locations rather than relying on a general space.
Conference visitors also need to pre-book and pay online for onsite campus parking (conferenceaston.co.uk). Graduation is an exception: parking is not available on the university campus or at Birmingham Town Hall for graduands and guests on graduation day (aston.ac.uk).
Shopping and Council Parking Around Eastside
Eastside parking is useful when a campus booking is unavailable, particularly for visitors combining a university appointment with city-centre shopping.
Drivers using an alternative car park should allow for the walk between the facility and 12 Aston Street rather than treating every city-centre space as campus parking. The university's own visitor guidance identifies campus locations P1, 20 and 24 for accessible parking (aston.ac.uk), while public facilities around Birmingham serve general city-centre demand.
The Busiest Times for Aston Parking
Parking pressure is highest when ordinary university travel combines with large organised visits. Graduation days are particularly important because parking is unavailable on the university campus and at Birmingham Town Hall for graduands and guests (aston.ac.uk).
Open days, conferences and other campus events also increase demand.
The university directs visitors towards designated parking locations and advance booking rather than informal campus-edge parking (aston.ac.uk).
