Leeds is a fantastic city - small enough to get around easily on foot, but also well connected by public transport.

Our City Campus is very central and spread over several buildings around Woodhouse Lane. We are just a few minutes’ walk from the main shopping centres, the First Direct Arena and heading out of town, Hyde Park.

Rose Bowl address: Rose Bowl Leeds Beckett University, City Campus, Leeds, LS1 3HB

Arriving by car

Leeds has good motorway links from the M1, M62 and M621 making it easy for your to reach.

Parking

Short stay parking is available at Rose Bowl (for sat nav use LS1 3HB), the car park is split into two sections; directly outside the Rose Bowl there is an open-air car park (pay and display) and there is an underground car park (pay on exit) below the Rose Bowl. Both are accessible via Portland Crescent.

There are a number of city centre pay and display car parks located near to our campus buildings. These can get busy during events and we would advise that you use Leeds Travel Info to check available car parking spaces on the day and that you leave plenty of time to find a parking space and walk to the campus. Postcodes for the closest city centre car parks are as follows:

• Woodhouse Lane Multi-storey: LS2 3AX
• Merrion Centre: LS2 8BT
• St. Johns Centre (NCP): LS2 8LQ
• The Light: LS1 8TL

Please also note that park-and-ride facilities are available at Elland Road and Stourton. They are easily accessible from the motorway and will allow you to avoid driving into the city centre altogether. Please the Metro website for more information.
