This applies to the Stoke Park campus near Merry Hill, where the address is The Plaza, Stoke Park, Bradley Stoke, BS16 1ZX. Permit parking is therefore the main arrangement for students and staff using the campus regularly, while visitors need to be booked into the system rather than relying on unreserved campus space. The university’s own car-parking information is the relevant source for access and booking requirements, rather than a commercial operator (uwe.ac.uk). ## Shopping and Council Parking Near Stoke Park For drivers heading to the University of the West of England from outside the campus, nearby alternatives include the Sainsbury’s Stoke Gifford car park in BS34 and other off-campus commercial parking around Filton and Stoke Gifford. The Sainsbury’s option is listed by Parksy as a 24/7 space, 0.7 miles away, priced at £3.75 an hour. Parksy also lists a car park in Bristol one mile from the campus at £12 a day, plus a parking space in Stoke Gifford, Bristol, also one mile away at £12 a day. These are useful alternatives when campus permit arrangements do not fit a short visit, with the hourly Sainsbury’s listing suiting a brief stop and the daily spaces better matched to a longer stay. Show map of Merry Hill ## Busy Periods and Street Restrictions Around the Campus Parking pressure is likely to be greatest on teaching weekdays because campus parking controls operate during the core period of 08:30 to 17:00 from Monday to Friday (uwe.ac.uk). Students and staff arriving at those times need the appropriate permit or booking, while visitors face the same requirement for campus parking. Open days create a separate demand peak. UWE’s open-day travel guidance directs drivers to Long Ashton Park and Ride, using postcode BS3 2HB, with free shuttle buses running to and from campus (uwe.ac.uk). ## Parksy Spaces Near the Stoke Park Campus Parksy lists a driveway-style parking option at the Holiday Inn Bristol Filton in Hambrook, 0.6 miles away, at £6.50 an hour. At 0.7 miles, the 24/7 Sainsbury’s Stoke Gifford space costs £3.75 an hour, while two Holiday Inn Express Bristol Filton listings at the same distance cost £6 an hour and £9 an hour. The spread gives visitors a choice between a lower hourly rate and hotel-based options. For longer visits, Parksy lists a lot parking space in Bristol one mile away at £12 a day and a parking space in Stoke Gifford, Bristol, one mile away at £12 a day. The nearer hourly spaces are practical for short appointments or occasional campus visits; the daily listings are better suited to staff, students or visitors staying for most of a day. ## Rail and Walking Access to the University Filton Abbey Wood railway station is the nearest station to the University of the West of England, at 0.7 miles and a 15-minute walk from the campus. This makes rail a workable option for students, staff and visitors who would otherwise need to arrange a permit or off-campus parking. Bristol Parkway railway station is another rail option, with an approximately 19-minute walk to the campus. The university is in Stoke Park, near Merry Hill, and its address is The Plaza, Stoke Park, Bradley Stoke, BS16 1ZX. The two stations provide alternatives for rail users approaching the campus from different directions.
