Student permits operate for 12 months and are paid quarterly; the listed 2024/2025 and 2025/2026 student annual permit charge is £15 per quarter (staffs.ac.uk). Staff permits also operate for 12 months, are chargeable and are applied for through the CPP Parking Portal (staffs.ac.uk). Visitors use pay-on-foot machines at various campus locations (staffs.ac.uk). The first payment requires a valid credit or debit card and the vehicle registration number (staffs.ac.uk). A 30-minute drop-off and pick-up window applies to vehicles arriving on the university campuses (staffs.ac.uk), which is useful for short visits but is not a substitute for parking during a lecture, appointment or meeting. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Near the Stoke Campus Students needing a full-day alternative can choose a 24/7 lighted parking lot 0.3 miles away for £12.50 a day, or a parking lot 0.4 miles away for £3 a day. A parking space at Stoke Health Centre is also 0.4 miles away and costs £4.30 a day, making it a practical match for staff or visitors with a daytime appointment. For shorter stays, a 24/7 parking space at Sainsburys Stoke-on-Trent is 262 yards away at £6.60 an hour. Two secure options are 0.5 miles away: a 24/7 garage at £1.80 an hour and a secure lighted parking lot at £1.90 an hour. The day-priced spaces suit students attending classes or staff working a full shift, while the hourly spaces are better aligned with brief visits. Show map of Stoke-on-Trent ## Busy Periods Around the Stoke-on-Trent Campus Parking pressure is most relevant during teaching terms, when student and staff demand converges across the five campus car parks. The university’s parking information identifies the Stoke-on-Trent campus and its student, visitor and staff arrangements separately (staffs.ac.uk). The university operates a permit system across all five car parks on the Leek Road site (staffs.ac.uk), while the visitor system uses pay-on-foot machines at campus locations (staffs.ac.uk). Drivers making a brief collection or drop-off have a 30-minute window on university campuses (staffs.ac.uk); longer stays need a permitted or paid arrangement rather than relying on that window. ## Other Car Parks Near University of Staffordshire Stoke Campus Fenton Manor Car Park at ST4 4RR is the university’s stated low-cost option in Stoke and is approximately 20 minutes’ walk from the campus (staffs.ac.uk). The university lists its tariff as £1.20 for up to 3 hours or £6, giving drivers a council-linked alternative away from the campus car parks (staffs.ac.uk). The location can suit a short visit because of its proximity, while Fenton Manor is more appropriate for a longer stay when a 20-minute walk is acceptable. The £3-a-day and £4.30-a-day Parksy spaces are additional day-priced alternatives, at 0.4 miles from the campus. ## Rail and Walking Access to the Stoke Campus Stoke-on-Trent railway station is the nearest station to the campus, at 0.3 miles away and a 7-minute walk. The station’s short walking connection is particularly useful during term-time demand, open days and campus events, when arriving by train avoids searching for a space around Cauldon Road and Shelton. The campus address is Cauldon Road, Shelton, Stoke-on-Trent, ST4 2ER, placing the university within the stated walking distance of Stoke-on-Trent railway station.
