Campus access

Information updated 12 February 2026

A short section of Margaret Keay Road will be closed from the Garden of Remembrance to the corner of the Morag Bell building for the duration of the project. Both the Garden and Morag Bell Building will remain accessible. Pedestrian routes around the site are also altered. 

The pedestrian access off the A512 Ashby Road onto Margaret Keay Road (near to the Cayley hall of residence) has been closed to allow preparatory work for construction traffic. This is the safest way for construction vehicles to enter the campus and ensures that disruption to Epinal Way is kept to a minimum. Once the preparatory work on this route is complete, we will review whether there is scope to permit safe pedestrian access again. 

The footpath located at the rear of Wavy Top, leading towards James France Walk, is now closed until 30 September 2027. During this period the footpath will be an emergency egress route only for staff and students in Wavy Top. Emergency escape signage is installed to guide occupants in the event of an emergency.

All vehicle and pedestrian route closures and diversions are signposted on site.
