Students travel to UTC South Durham from across the North East, with many choosing different ways to get to and from the UTC each day.
Whether you live locally or further afield, there are a number of options available, including:
- Walking – for students who live close enough to walk to the UTC.
- Cycling – the UTC is accessible by bike, providing an active and sustainable way to travel.
- Car – students can be dropped off and collected by parents or carers, with the UTC easily accessible by road.
- Public transport – local public bus services provide connections from surrounding towns and communities.
- UTC bus services – we provide dedicated bus services from a number of locations across the North East.
Dedicated UTC Bus Services
We know that travelling to a specialist college from further afield can be a concern for families. That’s why UTC South Durham provides dedicated bus services from various locations across the region.
These services make it possible for students from a wider area to attend UTC South Durham without needing to rely on parents or carers for the full journey.
The cost of our dedicated bus services is subsidised by UTC South Durham, helping to keep the cost of travel as affordable as possible for families.
Our bus routes and pick-up points are reviewed to reflect where our students live, so the options available may change from year to year.
