University of Greenwich’s Greenwich Campus has no on-campus parking for students, while the university directs drivers to a public car park just outside the campus in Park Row (gre.ac.uk). Staff visitor parking is managed through the university’s visitor permit service, where staff request and manage visitor car park permits for all campuses (visitorparking.gre.ac.uk).
