Do you know about all the different travel options and discounts you can use for getting around NTU and Nottingham?

NTU is fortunate to be in a city with an excellent public transport network, which is great for both your budget and the environment. If you want to cycle or travel by foot, we've invested lots into our changing and storage facilities.

Let's have a look at some of your travel options:

Bus

For bus travel, our two main operators Nottingham City Transport (NCT) and Trent Barton offer student discounts that cover across all of our campuses for trips into the city from surrounding areas.

The Go2 Uni 4 Bus Service runs up to every ten minutes throughout term time, Monday to Friday. This takes you to and from City Campus into the heart of the Clifton Campus in about 30 minutes.

The Pathfinder 26 bus runs between NTU Brackenhurst Campus and Nottingham city centre, seven days a week.

Tram

There are lots of tram stops at key points around Nottingham. City Campus has its own tram stop (Nottingham Trent University) and the Rivergreen stop is just a 15 minute walk from Clifton Campus. You can get special student-priced tickets at each tram stop or via the NETGO! ticketing app.

Cycling

Do you know about our Cycle Hub? All students can rent a bike for the year or term and you also get maintenance, a lock, lights and safety advice included. You can now hire a bike for the rest of the academic year for just £29! Email cycle@ntu.ac.uk to find out more.

Travelling between campuses

If you’re a bit stuck on how to travel between our campuses, take a look at the information on the different bus and travel connections on the NTU website.

Once you arrive, use MazeMap to navigate your way around each campus and get specific directions to rooms and facilities.
