Parking at Anglia Ruskin University Cambridge Campus
For the Cambridge campus, ARU directs general drivers towards nearby public car parks rather than setting out a general campus parking tariff. The university lists the Queen Anne and Grafton Street multi-storey car parks as five minutes’ walk away, alongside a short-stay car park opposite the campus (ARU). This arrangement is more useful for short visits than for assuming a student or staff permit is available on site.
Campus parking information differs between ARU locations. The university says Chelmsford has campus parking for blue badge holders and other visitors after 4.30pm (ARU), while Peterborough has limited on-site parking for Blue Badge holders or people with accessibility issues, with advance booking required (ARU). Those rules belong to the other campuses, so Cambridge drivers should use the Cambridge travel guidance when planning a visit to the Bradmore Street address.
Queen Anne, Grafton Street and Other Central Cambridge Car Parks
The Queen Anne and Grafton Street multi-storey car parks are the main public alternatives named by ARU for general parking near the Cambridge campus. Both are five minutes’ walk away, making them practical for staff, students and visitors who need a central, structured car park rather than a space on a residential street (ARU).
ARU also identifies a short-stay car park opposite the campus for shorter visits (ARU). The university’s Cambridge travel page does not provide a tariff or free-period rule for these Cambridge facilities in the available parking guidance, so the named options are best treated as distinct public car parks rather than interchangeable campus spaces.
Parksy Spaces Around the Bradmore Street Campus
Parksy lists a driveway space in the Gonville area, 0.2 mi from the campus, at £7.40 a day. Its short distance suits students attending classes, staff working a full day and visitors who want to leave a car close to the Bradmore Street address. A secure covered space in CB1 2LQ is 0.4 mi away and costs £90 a week, which fits regular staff or students needing a weekly arrangement.
Three further secure covered options are listed 0.5 mi away: a garage in CB1 2PS at £12 a day, a garage in CB1 2PT at £95 a week, and a covered space in St. Matthews Gardens at £100 a month. The monthly listing is aimed at longer-term staff or students, while the daily garage spaces work for visitors or occasional campus days. A parking space at The Travel Clinic Ltd is also 0.5 mi away at £7.40 an hour, giving visitors an hourly choice.
Busy Periods and Street Restrictions Around the Cambridge Campus
The Cambridge campus page names the Queen Anne and Grafton Street multi-storeys as five minutes’ walk away and places the short-stay car park opposite the campus (ARU). Those entry points are preferable to relying on surrounding streets, where ordinary parking controls and short-stay restrictions can limit how long a vehicle remains. The short-stay facility is therefore better matched to brief appointments, while a booked Parksy space gives longer visits a defined destination.
Walking From Cambridge Railway Station to Anglia Ruskin University
Cambridge railway station is the nearest station to the campus, at 0.6 mi and a 13-minute walk.
