Getting There
By Train and Bus
Trains come into Cambridge regularly. Once you get to the station, it's possible to get buses from there to the convention site. The bus 'U' goes directly from the station to the convention site. Check outherefor details and times.
Alternatively, if you're coming from the town centre get on the park and ride to Madingley Road. It is a red bus and stops at Cambridge City Centre Drummer Street D1. Take this to the Madingley Road park and ride. From here cross the main road to enter West Cambridge Site and walk to the sports centre. Here's thepark and ride timetable.
Returning to the train station: be aware that the last bus back to town is at 9:53pm if you get the 'U', and at 8:10pm if you get the park and ride bus. We'll try to connect anyone who needs a lift with someone with a car, and it's walkable in about 50 minutes. Alternatively, taxis can be booked with Panther Taxis, 01223 715715, and are likely to cost around £16 from the sports centre to the train station.
By Bike
There is a good (uni)cycle path which runs from where King's Parade and Trinity Street meet and goes over the Garrett Hostel Lane all the way to the back of the sports centre. Here's acycle planning map from the station to the venue. There are tons of cycle racks there to lock up your bike.
By Car
See address and note about older sat navs above. Car parking is available, free of charge, a short 2-minute walk from the Sports Centre in Car Park 8 on Charles Babbage Road.
