A permit is needed to park there between 7am and 4pm, Monday to Friday, throughout the year (bournemouth.ac.uk). Students and staff must apply for permission through the BU Parking Membership system, which is intended to prioritise people most in need of campus parking (parking.bournemouth.ac.uk). Only students issued with a valid BU parking permit may use the permit-holder car parks on Talbot Campus (bournemouth.ac.uk). The university’s directions state that there is no student parking at Talbot Campus apart from pre-approved permit holders, while local council car parks are available in Bournemouth (bournemouth.ac.uk). Open Day visitors do not need to reserve parking and can use Talbot or Lansdowne campus parking without paying, although a Pay and Display car park may be required (bournemouth.ac.uk). ## Busy Parking Periods Around Talbot Campus Open Day visitors can park at Talbot or Lansdowne campus without paying, but some may need to use a Pay and Display car park (bournemouth.ac.uk). The university also publishes separate parking updates for students, reflecting the need to control access to permit-holder areas. The campus directions also state that local council car parking is available in Bournemouth and that pre-booking is possible (bournemouth.ac.uk). Show map of Bournemouth ## Council and Shopping Parking Near Bournemouth University Drivers without a campus permit can use local council car parks in Bournemouth, which the university identifies as an alternative to Talbot Campus parking (bournemouth.ac.uk). Pay and Display parking may also be needed by Open Day visitors, even though Open Day parking at Talbot and Lansdowne campuses does not require payment (bournemouth.ac.uk). The campus directions specifically point visitors towards council car parking in Bournemouth rather than student parking at Talbot Campus. This makes council facilities the practical public option for a full visit when permit-holder bays are unavailable. ## Parksy Spaces for the Talbot Village Campus Parksy lists two spaces 0.5 miles from the campus: a driveway space near West Howe Clinic at £5.20 a day and a space at Talbot Medical Centre at £4.90 an hour. The Talbot Medical Centre option suits a short appointment or lecture, while the daily driveway space is better suited to staff or students spending most of the day near campus. Further options include parking at Hilton Bournemouth, 1.2 miles away, at £2 an hour; a space at Westbourne Medical Centre, 1.4 miles away, at £4 a day; a secure 24/7 gated garage 1.4 miles away, at £12 a day; and a Malvern Road driveway space 1.4 miles away, at £4.50 a day. The hourly Hilton space suits shorter visits, while the daily and gated options are more useful for longer stays or visitors who prefer secured parking.
