Travelling by car and car parking
IMPORTANT TRAVEL INFORMATION: SUMMER 2013
If you are visiting the conference centres and hotel between 19th July and 2nd September 2013, and you are approaching the city from the M5, via Broad Street or the A38 from the south, please be advised to leave additional time to complete your journey due to tunnel upgrades in Birmingham city centre. Full details can be found in the Tunnels Closure PDF to the right. Diversions will be signposted, by the council, in the city centre along these routes for the duration of the works to assist you with your journey to the venues.
If you are travelling by car, please note that Aston Street is now closed to through traffic and google maps and Sat Nav systems do not all reflect this.
For access to Aston Business School Conference Centre, please access Aston Street from Woodcock Street and not the main road, James Watt Queensway. Please use the downloadable map to locate your venue.
If you are using a GPS system to find us the Post Code is B4 7ET. On some GPS systems this will take you to Corporation Street, however you will need to get to Aston Street to get to the Conference Aston venues. From here, please refer to the downloadable map for directions to the venues.
If you have a TomTom GPS system, add Conference Aston as a point of interest by clicking the button below. It will bring you straight to Aston Street at the heart of the campus.
The links to the right contain a route planner to enable you to plan your journey to the conference centres. We would recommend using Google Maps as this, on most occasions, shows the most accurate location. Some other planners may not be as accurate. The post code you need to enter is B4 7ET which should direct you to the Aston University Campus.
Aston Business School Conference Centre is on Aston Street, which you must approach from Woodcock Street, not the James Watt Queensway.
The Lakeside Centre and Pre-Booked visitor parking is located off Jennens Road, which should be accessed from the James Watt Queensway.
