By rail:

You can get to the University on foot in 15 minutes, by turning left outside the station, walking up London Road and then turning right along University Road. From the railway station you can also catch the number 48 or 80 bus service which runs from outside the station to the University. The 80 bus route also serves a number of University accommodation sites, but only operates during University term-time. There is a taxi rank at the railway station. The fare should be between £5 and £12.

By bus or coach:

If you are travelling to Leicester by bus or coach you will arrive at St Margaret's Bus Station in the city center. You'll be able to get a bus from St Margaret's Bus Station to the University Halls of Residence, although you will have to change buses:
•The no.48 bus, operated by Arriva, leaves St Margaret's every 15 minutes and takes about ten minutes to reach the University. (NB. The return journey is the no.47.)
•The no.80 bus, also Arriva, leaves St Margaret's every 30 minutes and continues past the University to the Halls of Residence in Oadby. When returning, be aware that the 80A operates largely the same route but does not go to the railway station or city centre.
