The University of Leicester states that campus parking is permit only, with visitors directed to a nearby car park unless prior arrangements have been made for the visit (libraryhelp.le.ac.uk). The site is on University Road in Leicester, near St Marys, and the university’s travel information identifies time-restricted pay-at-metre parking on University Road, Princess Road East and some adjoining roads on the edge of Victoria Park (pgcecourseinfo.le.ac.uk). Those spaces are the closest street-based option mentioned by the university, but their time restriction makes them less suitable for a long study session. ## Nearby Leicester Car Parks and Victoria Park Parking Victoria Park car park is mentioned as an all-day option near the university library, with a five-minute walk along the park and a charge of £4.70 for the day (thestudentroom.co.uk). The council’s car-park information lists charges of £2.50 for up to 1 hour, £5 for up to 3 hours, £6.30 for up to 4 hours, £8.80 for up to 6 hours, £12.50 for up to 9 hours and £15 for up to 12 hours (leicester.gov.uk). Free Blue Badge parking is listed within the council’s car-park information (leicester.gov.uk). This gives eligible drivers a clearly identified free option, while Victoria Park provides the named nearby choice for an all-day stay. The university’s visitor guidance still directs non-permit holders away from campus parking unless a visit has been arranged in advance (libraryhelp.le.ac.uk). Show map of St Marys ## Busy Times and Parking Rules Around University Road This makes the surrounding paid and time-restricted spaces particularly relevant for drivers arriving for evening study, early starts or extended visits. University Road, Princess Road East and some adjoining roads at the edge of Victoria Park have time-restricted pay-at-metre parking (pgcecourseinfo.le.ac.uk). Campus parking is permit only, and visitors are directed to a nearby car park unless prior arrangements have been made (libraryhelp.le.ac.uk). These rules mean a driver should treat the library grounds and nearby street bays as separate options, rather than assuming a campus space can be used for a general visit. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Near the Library Parksy lists a secure 24/7 space at Commercial Square, 0.4 mi away, priced at £10 an hour. Welford Road Stadium offers another space 0.4 mi away at £14.68 an hour, giving drivers two named options at the shortest listed distance. At 0.5 mi, the Stoneycroft Hotel space costs £4.75 an hour, while the Best Western Belmont House space is priced at £7.40 a day. The Belmont Hotel has a 0.6 mi option at £8.25 an hour, and a space on New Walk in Leicester LE1 is also 0.6 mi away at £4.50 an hour. ## Walking and Rail Access From Leicester Station Leicester railway station is the nearest station to the site, at 0.8 mi and a 17-minute walk. For visitors arriving by train, the station provides a practical alternative to driving into the university area, particularly when a longer library visit would make time-restricted street parking inconvenient. The library is 0.7 mi from St Marys centre. Its University Road position places it within walking reach of central Leicester, while the station route gives rail passengers a defined walking connection to the building. Drivers using a more distant car park can also combine parking with a walk rather than relying on campus access. Show street view near David Wilson Library ## Sources - [Q.
