The Uranium Science logo

Thank you for your interest in attending the Uranium Science Conference to be hosted at ¶¶Òõ̽̽App.

To support all attendees throughout the event, we have assembled a guide of the available options for travelling to and from ¶¶Òõ̽̽App, and for on-site and off-site accommodation.

The Uranium Science Conference will be held in the George Fox Building on ¶¶Òõ̽̽App Bailrigg Campus:

The George Fox Building

Travel to ¶¶Òõ̽̽App

By Car

¶¶Òõ̽̽App is accessible by car via the M6 motorway through junction 33 or 34, though it is highly recommended to travel in via junction 33 (Galgate), as junction 34 incurs longer travel times as this requires travel through Lancaster city centre.

If using an online route planner or satnav, the main University postcode is LA1 4YW

Important Notes for Attendees planning to travel by car:

On-site parking during the event is available anywhere on campus.

Attendees must collect a free parking pass from the registration desk upon arrival to display in their vehicle.

It is therefore highly recommended that you plan your journey to arrive ahead of time for the conference in the event that delays are encountered during your travel, or to procure suitable accommodation either on-site or off-site to ¶¶Òõ̽̽App to ensure that the commuting time onto campus to the George Fox Building is minimised as much as possible.

This parking permit must be visibly displayed within the vehicle that you wish to park on ¶¶Òõ̽̽App Campus for the duration of your stay. For the convenience of attendees, this parking permit will be valid across the campus rather than being limited to any specific car park.

By Train

Lancaster railway station (west coast mainline) is located right next to a bus-stop that can used to travel to ¶¶Òõ̽̽App campus. Bus services are run every 15 mins from the railway station, and there are multiple bus stops on ¶¶Òõ̽̽App campus, including the bus-stop at the University entrance close to the sports centre, and the main bus-stop located at the ¶¶Òõ̽̽App underpass, which will drop passengers off in the centre of ¶¶Òõ̽̽App campus.

Local taxi services are also available that can provide private transport if this is required, and the University is also accessible via a foot-path for those wishing to cycle from Lancaster Railway station onto ¶¶Òõ̽̽App campus.

  • The average travel time from Lancaster Railway station to ¶¶Òõ̽̽App campus via bus is approximately 45 minutes.
  • The average travel time from Lancaster Railway station to ¶¶Òõ̽̽App campus via cycling is approximately 25-30 minutes.
