University accommodation
If you’re living in University accommodation, you must register your vehicle. This entitles you to free parking at your contracted accommodation site. Students whose vehicles are registered at the accommodation are not permitted to park on teaching campuses between 8am – 5pm on weekdays and are encouraged to use the University’s free campus bus and Connect service.
Pay to Park
If you do not live at University accommodation, you can register your vehicle to allow it to be parked on campus. This enables you to park at the reduced rate of 35p per hour (up to a maximum of £1.30 per day). Please ensure you enter your term time address. If you have any questions, please contact Facilities on 0191 515 3366 or parkingservices@sunderland.ac.uk.
