Getting around at Hartpury is easy. You can hop on one of the public buses that stop regularly on campus. Alongside that, we offer on-campus parking for student cars and have great relationships with local taxi firms.

Home-to-College bus service

Our Home-to-College bus service booking platform is managed by smart transportation company, Zeelo. Users can create an account via the Zeelo website, browse our routes, find your closest bus stop, check the cost, and book your annual ticket and collection point via the Zeelo website.

There will be an option to pay a deposit to secure your place, with the full annual ticket and payment options available from July. Your ticket will be an easy-to-access QR code on your phone, that the driver will scan when you board the bus.
