University of Kent’s Gillingham and Mast Pond car parks are available as usual from Monday to Friday between 8am and 5pm (blogs.kent.ac.uk). MidKent College states that [free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) at the Medway Campus is available during College hours only for registered disabled students and Blue Badge-holders (midkent.ac.uk). These arrangements make the permit and eligibility rules particularly important for anyone driving to North Road. ## Busy Periods Around the Medway Campus Weekday demand is most relevant during the Monday to Friday operating period published for the University of Kent’s Gillingham and Mast Pond car parks, which runs from 8am to 5pm (blogs.kent.ac.uk). Students and staff arriving within those hours are likely to face the greatest pressure when campus activity is at its normal weekday level. Open days and other university events can bring additional visitors to the Medway site, especially when prospective students and families arrive together. Marys Island, so drivers should avoid treating nearby residential streets as overflow parking. MidKent College’s free campus parking restriction for registered disabled students and Blue Badge-holders during College hours also means general visitors cannot assume that accessible bays provide ordinary visitor parking (midkent.ac.uk).

These are practical alternatives for visitors who need to leave a car away from the campus and continue towards North Road on foot or by local transport.

MidKent College’s site specifies free on-site parking only for registered disabled students and Blue Badge-holders during College hours, so general drivers should look to public car parks rather than assume that rule provides a free general parking period (midkent.ac.uk). ## Walking From Gillingham Station to Universities at Medway Gillingham railway station is the nearest listed station, 0.9 mi from the campus and a 19-minute walk away.
