Parking and travel

Campus information

Working from home

Parking permits
Don't forget that if you do not have the correct permit to park you will receive a penalty notice. Further parking information can be found in the 2nd Olympics bulletin.

Collecting your permits
Period 2 parking permits (26 July - 13 August) and period 3 permits (13 August - 10 September) are currently in production and staff will be contacted when these are ready to collect.

If you are unable to collect your new permit before your previous one runs out, you will be permitted access to campus to collect it. No further permits will be issued for this period.

Visitor parking
There is no visitor parking on any UEL campus throughout the Games.

Avoid parking at Docklands Campus - Fri 20 July
This will be an exceptionally busy day both at UEL and across London so we are asking staff, where possible, not to park on campus. If you do need to park at Docklands Campus, please remove your car before 5pm.

Duncan House - Fri 20 July
Please can staff park in the underground car park on this day.

Olympic route network now open
These are networks of roads linking all Games venues and key non-competition sites such as Heathrow Airport. If you drive, you may be affected by temporary changes such as Games Lanes, changes to traffic lights and more. Visit Get Ahead of the Games for more information.

Deliveries
Please ensure that details of any scheduled deliveries and parcels are sent to 2012@uel.ac.uk Non-registered deliveries and parcels that have not been booked will be turned away. We will accept all letter post in the normal way.
