The University actively promotes its Travel Plan that aims to reduce single car occupancy and encourage sustainable travel to and from Canterbury City and Medway Towns; supporting improved air quality, low-carbon emissions and active travel. Drivers on University of Kent Land need to be aware:
- University of Kent Regulations for the Management of Traffic & Travel applies to all persons
- All vehicles must be parked within a marked bay at all times, unless permission has been given by an authorized person in the Transport or Security teams
- 8am-5pm Monday to Friday, all drivers must have a permit to park on campus or visitors can display a P&D ticket at Canterbury campus, in accordance with the permit/ticket issued.
- Parking enforcement is in operation at all times.
