Directions for the Open Day

Advice on travel to Oxford is available from the University; see also a collection of Oxford travel and timetable information. The department is a brisk 15-minute walk from the railway station, or a brisk 10-minute walk from the bus station, but taxis are readily available.

The map on this page shows the immediate surroundings of the Wolfson Building and Oxford e-Science Laboratory. The building is on the corner of Keble Road and Parks Road; although the main entrance is on Parks Road, we will be using the OeRC entrance at 7 Keble Road for the Open Day. The University's map of the City Centre shows the area of the department (close to the University Parks) as well as the railway and bus stations; see also other maps.

Public parking in the city centre is very limited and the best advice for those coming by car is probably to use the Park & Ride services on the city outskirts (see map). However, "Pay and display" parking for up to two hours (at £1.50/hour) is usually available on Keble Road. (Note that the road junction between Keble Road and Banbury Road is closed to motor vehicles. Access from Banbury Road is now via the junction with Parks Road at the northern end of the "Keble Road triangle".)

To use a mapping service (such as Multimap or Streetmap) or a route planning service (such as RAC Route Planner or Google Maps) please use postcode OX1 3QD.

If you have trouble on the day, please phone 01865 283521 for help.
