Car parking at the University of Bristol

Bristol's Clean Air Zone

Bristol's Clean Air Zone (CAZ) will start on Monday 28 November 2022. Visit the CAZ page for advice on how the CAZ might affect your commuting and other private car journeys, and the exemptions and other support available from the council.

Users of university car parks on Clifton campus should pay special attention as the alignment of the CAZ boundary means daily charges will apply to non-compliant vehicles using some car parks e.g. Old Park Hill, but not others (subject to the access route taken).

Why do we manage parking?

• Demand for car parking at the University is high.
• To make best use of limited resources and allocate spaces as fairly as possible.
• To support the University's Travel Plan and encourage the use of alternative means of transport when studying, visiting or working at the University.
