Swansea University - Vacation Events Car Parking

Vacation Events Car Parking

Delegates attending conferences on campus and staying overnight in University residences can park on campus. Non-residential visitors/delegates must use the off campus car parks. It may be necessary during peak periods to direct residential delegates to the off campus car parks. If this is the case then resident delegates are advised to move their cars on campus at the end of the working day.

For our residential events during the vacation periods the following applies:

Resident delegates arriving before 2.00pm on weekdays, the earliest check-in at the Residences, can park in the main car park, immediately to the east of the pay and display car park. If the barrier is down please press the intercom and state the event you are attending. Please collect a car park access card and note for display in your car from the Residences Reception when you check in.

Resident delegates arriving after 2.00pm can drive direct to the Residences Reception on the ground floor of Preseli Residence. There they can check in to the bedrooms and collect a car park access card and display note. All vehicles must then be parked in main car park.

Resident delegates arriving at the weekend after 4.00pm on Friday can park in any car park on campus but if staying through to Monday vehicles must be moved to the main car park by 8.00am.

If all spaces are full there is also the pay and display car park, which is on the immediate right hand side of the University entrance. The charges are: Up to 2 hours - £1.00 Up to 4 hours – £2.00 Over 4 hours - £3.00

There are two off campus car parks located about 2 minutes walk to the west of the campus (attended 9.00-17.00, charge made of £2.20 per day or £1.20 per afternoon) or 7 minutes walk to the east side, when unattended, no charge. During peak periods a small charge may be made if parking staff are in attendance.

Parking in unauthorised areas will result in the car being clamped. There is currently a £25 de-clamping fee.

Coaches and mini buses can use the main car park from 5.00pm onwards by prior agreement. They must move from their overnight slot by 08.30, either to the east side of Fulton House to pick up after breakfast, or to the city owned space directly to the east of the campus, called the Rec, if pick ups are later in the day.
