Key dates

As well as being used during term time by staff and students, there are often a great many visitors to campus each week.

The table below attempts to summarise the dates where campus is expected to be particularly busy. 

Additional traffic on campus and on routes surrounding campus can be anticipated on these days and local residents and visitors are recommended to plan additional time for their journeys.
