## University of Manchester Campus Parking

The University of Manchester has five car parks on campus, with a mixture of permit and public parking (estates.manchester.ac.uk). Blue Badge holders can park free of charge (estates.manchester.ac.uk). The campus therefore offers both controlled access for regular users and public spaces for some visits, rather than a single unrestricted visitor car park.

Drivers visiting a member of staff may be able to receive a parking permit for the day from their host (manchester.ac.uk). Open-day guidance directs Dover Street parking to Car Park D on Booth Street West (manchester.ac.uk). The university’s published car-parking information identifies the official campus operator as the University itself (estates.manchester.ac.uk).

## When Parking Is Hardest Around the Campus

Parking is extremely limited during open days, according to the university’s visitor guidance (manchester.ac.uk). The guidance directs open-day drivers towards Car Park D on Booth Street West, while identifying Dover Street as car park G (manchester.ac.uk). Open days are therefore a poor time to rely on finding a convenient space close to the main buildings.

Access can also change for organised university operations. Booth Street West multistorey car park is scheduled to close on Monday 4 and Monday 25 May, while access to all other car parks operates as normal (staffnet.manchester.ac.uk). The university’s open-day page is the clearest warning for event-related demand, and its parking guidance should be read before driving to campus.

## Other Car Parks Near the University of Manchester

[NCP](https://www.parksy.com/blog/national-car-parks-ncp-united-kingdom-parking-review) operates Manchester Circle Square Car Park, with pay-on-the-day pricing of £7 for 1 to 2 hours, £10.50 for 2 to 3 hours, £14 for 3 to 4 hours, £17.50 for 4 to 5 hours and £20 for 5 to 24 hours (ncp.co.uk). Circle Square is an alternative to the university’s own car parks for drivers wanting a commercial facility near the campus.

The published local options also include shopping and city-centre facilities, but their usefulness depends on the length of the visit. Circle Square’s 5 to 24 hour band gives an all-day ceiling of £20 (ncp.co.uk). No free-period rule is stated for this car park in the published tariff, so drivers should treat it as a paid stay from arrival.

## Nearby Parksy Spaces for Students, Staff and Visitors

Parksy lists a driveway space at the Imperial Hotel in Manchester M13, 255 yd away, at £4 a day. A space at The Grafton Hotel is 0.2 mi away and costs £4.30 a day. These lower-priced daily spaces suit visitors and staff attending for a day, especially when a campus permit is not available.

A secure garage space in Manchester is 0.2 mi away at £14.50 a day, while a secure Manchester M15 space is 0.2 mi away at £80 a month. The monthly option is aimed at students or staff needing regular parking rather than a single visit. Two further spaces are listed 0.3 mi away: ParkBee at Liverpool Central Village costs £3.52 an hour, and a Liverpool Central Village car park space costs £10.30 a day.

## Rail and Walking Access to the Campus

Manchester Mayfield railway station is the nearest listed station, 0.7 mi from the campus and a 14-minute walk. The station provides a practical alternative for visitors who would otherwise be searching for a space around Brunswick Park in Chorlton-on-Medlock.

Manchester Piccadilly station is approximately a 15-minute walk away, while Ardwick railway station is approximately a 17-minute walk away. The campus is in Chorlton-on-Medlock, near Deansgate, so rail users can choose between several stations rather than depending solely on campus parking.
