The university’s visitor guidance identifies a limited amount of on-street parking on Regent Street (aup.ac.uk), so drivers heading to an appointment should treat nearby street bays as limited rather than relying on a campus car park. For parking information, Arts University Plymouth directs visitors to Plymouth City Council (aup.ac.uk). The university’s getting-here page does not publish a campus permit scheme, visitor tariff or named campus car-park operator, so the practical campus option identified by the institution is Regent Street on-street parking. Plymouth City Council is the authority to consult for the parking arrangements referred to by the university (aup.ac.uk). ## Council Parking Around Regent Street and Tavistock Place On-street pay-and-display parking is available on Tavistock Place, Regent Street and Gibbon Street, according to Plymouth Arts Cinema’s visitor guidance (plymouthartscinema.org). These streets are useful for short visits to the Barbican campus because they place parking close to Charles Street, while Regent Street is also the street named in Arts University Plymouth’s own arrival information. Plymouth Arts Cinema states that its venue parking is open from 7am to 11pm and includes 1,270 parking spaces (plymouthartscinema.org). The same guidance identifies the three streets as pay-and-display locations, but does not give a [free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) period or tariff for them. Drivers visiting for teaching, meetings or exhibitions should therefore plan around paid parking rather than assuming a complimentary period. Show map of Plymouth ## Parksy Spaces Close to Charles Street Parksy lists a secure underground space at Charles Cross, 123 yards away, at £1.70 an hour. A secure 24/7 parking-lot space in PL4 6AB is 287 yards away and costs £2 an hour. These are the closest priced choices in the local list, making them practical for students with a short timetable, staff needing a regular nearby base, or visitors attending a single appointment. For longer stays, Parksy lists a space at Plymouth Nuffield Hospital, 0.3 miles away, at £4 a day, and a White Friars Lane space, also 0.3 miles away, at £1.19 an hour. Further 0.3-mile options are a Sainsbury’s Armada Centre space at £11 an hour and a Copthorne Hotel Plymouth space at £4.38 an hour. The hospital listing suits a full-day visit, while the hourly spaces fit shorter campus trips. ## Busy Periods and Street Restrictions Near the Barbican Campus Parking pressure is likely to rise when campus activity brings extra visitors to the cultural quarter. Arts University Plymouth’s campus includes studios, workshops, galleries and specialist creative facilities (aup.ac.uk), while the university highlights nearby venues including The Box, KARST, Theatre Royal Plymouth, Barbican Theatre and Market Hall (aup.ac.uk). Open days, exhibitions and performances can therefore make nearby paid bays more competitive than an ordinary teaching day. The university identifies Regent Street as having only a limited amount of on-street parking (aup.ac.uk). The published local guidance does not give term dates or separate event restrictions, so students, staff and visitors should regard Regent Street, Tavistock Place and Gibbon Street as controlled paid parking streets rather than unrestricted campus parking. ## Walking From Plymouth Stations to Arts University Plymouth Plymouth Friary railway station is the nearest station, at 0.3 miles from Arts University Plymouth and a 7-minute walk. This is the most direct rail arrival for students, staff and visitors carrying only light bags, with the Charles Street campus within a short walk of the station. Plymouth railway station is also close, at approximately a 9-minute walk from the campus. Rail users can therefore avoid searching for a space on Regent Street or the surrounding pay-and-display streets, particularly when nearby cultural venues and campus facilities are busy.
