The flood of 11-14 January 2011 has had an impact on travel options for staff, students and visitors to the St Lucia campus.
With the destruction of the CityCat pontoon, one of the three major transport modes to the campus has been lost for some time.
The loss of the CityCat service has had the undesirable effect of placing further pressure on bus and private vehicle transport options.
The University's Property & Facilities division is consulting with providers of public transport to pursue methods to alleviate this pressure.
To ensure that you have all the information required to make an informed decision on which option to take, լе Property & Facilities division has provide the following parking updates:
