The Great Western Railway currently provides the services for the Swindon train stations.
The railway station is located 200 meters from the bus station and around 3.3km from the Oxford Brookes Swindon Campus. The railway station is located 200 meters from the bus station meaning travel is approximately 50 minute walk, 30 minute bus ride and about a 10 minute taxi ride away from the Swindon station.
National Student discounts are available on train services, available through the 16-25 Rail Card and NUS TOTUM Card.
Parking at Swindon Campus is limited and restricted to permit holders only. When parking on campus, permit holders are subject to daily tariff rates.
Possession of a permit does not guarantee you a space, only that the vehicle is permitted to park in the designated University car park in the Delta 900 business site and cars are parked at owner’s own risk.
You are not permitted to park in other business car parks within the business park.
Further parking and permit information is available on the University parking webpages.
