Rail:
Cambridge has two train stations – Cambridge and Cambridge North. Frequent trains run between each (approx. 4 minute journey time).

The Universal ‘U’ bus is the best way to travel to the conference venue and stops at the entrance to the site with direct links from the central train station and Madingley Road Park and Ride sites. The West Road/University Library stop is the nearest stop.
Walking
The venue is situated a 10 minute walk from the city centre and a 35 minute walk from Cambridge train station.
Road & Parking
We encourage delegates to make use of public transport.
There is limited on-street paid parking on West Road adjacent to the site. Please note that stays are limited to four hours so will not be suitable for all day parking. If you wish to drive it is best to use one of the city’s 5 Park and Ride sites which will take you to the city centre. Central car parks are available but please note that car parking in Cambridge is very expensive. The nearest central car park to the venue is at the Grand Arcade.
