Getting to the Venue

By Car

As there is limited parking on site, drivers are advised to park at Madingley Road Park and Ride, which is free (for up to 18 hours) and only a 5 minute walk away. There is disabled parking on site for Blue Badge holders (please note parking charges still apply).

Madingley Road Park and Ride is on the A1303. If you are travelling Northwards on the M11, you want to get off at Junction 13 and head towards Cambridge.

By Train / Bus

Eddington is on the Whippet Universal Bus route (U). There is a U Bus that leaves Cambridge Railway Station at 10:10 from Stop 8, and arriving at Storey's Field Centre at 10:35. The last U Bus departs from Storey's Field Centre at 18:45. More info on the Universal Bus (including fare information and the timetable) can be found on the Whippet website (but, honestly, just use google maps).

You can also use the Citi 4, X3 buses which travel to/from Madingley Road, and the Madingley Road Park and Ride and the Citi 5 and Citi 6 buses to/from Huntingdon Road. More info can be found on the Stagecoach website (but, honestly, just use google maps).
