Car Parking Supervisor - Will Jacobs
Our Car Parking team work across every University of Worcester campus to maintain control of all vehicles entering the grounds. Our main aim is to ensure that all vehicles are adhering to the Vehicle Parking Regulations and making sure that emergency services are able to gain access to all buildings with ease.
We strongly recommend that you read through the Vehicle Parking Regulations to understand what is expected of anyone parking on a University of Worcester site.
If you are not adhering to these regulations, you will receive a parking ticket that may contain a fine.
To park on any of our University of Worcester campuses you will either require a parking permit or a pay & display ticket. Please see below for further information on this.
Unmarked Car Parks
St. John's campus can often become busy during term times and parking spaces are limited. In some instances you may be required to park in an unmarked car park such as the Grass Overflow or the Permit only Car Park K. Please refer to the following link for guidance on how to use an unmarked car park.
