Car Parking
Demand for car park spaces exceeds the spaces available, which is particularly acute during term time. Therefore, parking controls and restrictions are implemented to ensure the efficient and effective operation of the University, equity of access and fairness.
Student Parking
Bona fide students who are registered on one of the University's courses will be eligible to park on campus, see below for on-campus car parking charges.

Staff monthly permits
We have received feedback from staff that the monthly permit scheme should be extended to part-time staff. In response to this feedback we will be introducing a monthly permit scheme for part-time staff from 1st October 2011. Details of the charges and application process will be published on Portia in August.
Off campus parking
Off campus parking is available at the Local Authority owned London Road car park, Bognor Regis and the Chichester Rugby Club car park, Wellington Road, Chichester. The University pays for the use of the car parks centrally and no direct charges apply to University staff or students using the available spaces. Staff and students are encouraged to use these spaces to reduce the demand for on-campus parking and to limit the on-street parking near the two campuses, which causes inconvenience to local residents.
The aim of the University’s new Green Travel Plan is to promote and support staff and students to use sustainable forms of transport when travelling to and from the University. The University is committed to using the income generated from car parking charges to support the sustainability initiatives detailed in the Green Travel Plan. This year car park income totalling £40,000 contributed towards the cost of the upgrade to an existing cycle store and building a new cycle store at Bognor Regis Campus. These two cycle stores are now fully enclosed, lit and secure. In addition, the money has helped to fund the licence fees for the use of the two off-campus car parks (free to staff and students) and the intercampus bus service.
Off-campus car park charges
The off-campus car parks (Chichester Rugby Club and London Road Bognor) will continue to be free to staff and students.
