Travelling by bus
If you live in Wiltshire, are under the age of 19 and live more than 3 miles from the College campus you will attend, you are probably eligible for a subsidised bus pass from Wiltshire Council as long as the college is the nearest provider of your course.
Ask for a Post 16 Transport Application Form in Customer Services. Bus passes last for one year only. If you are returning to College for a second year you will need to re-apply. Forms are available from Receptions from March of each year.
Please follow the links below for full details of transport to each campus:
Travelling to and from Wiltshire College Chippenham
Travelling to and from Wiltshire College Lackham
Travelling to and from Wiltshire College Salisbury
Travelling to and from Wiltshire College Trowbridge
Difficulties with travel passes
Please ask at Customer Services on your campus.
Behaviour on buses
Drivers of buses have a duty of care for the safety and comfort of themselves and passengers and have strict instructions about what to do if students are behaving badly. Students causing damage will be charged for that damage and the Passenger Transport Unit has the right to exclude a student from such transport.
Bus timetables
Full timetables are available at College Receptions or Customer Services and on notice boards.
For enquiries about Wiltshire Council transport options phone STAN (Student Transport Advice Network) on 01225 757575.

Travelling by car
The College centres are very busy and are used by people of all ages. Everyone is expected to drive and park safely and with care-a serious view is taken of students who drive without care and put the safety of others at risk.
Car parking
- Free car parking is available at the main sites but is very limited at some of the smaller centres. See the site maps here for locations of car parks.
- If you are using College car parking at the main campuses during the day then you will need to pick up a free parking permit from the Student Liaison team.
- Please keep emergency access points clear by only parking in marked bays. Vehicles not parked in marked bays are subject to wheel-clamping
- We ask you not to use the parking spaces reserved for disabled drivers unless you are entitled to do so
- We are unable to take responsibility for any theft or damage that may occur.
- All Full-time students who are using College car parks must register their car details with the college and display a parking sticker. Please ask at Customer Services for details.
If travelling by car
- Car-share if possible
- Please ensure that parking spaces reserved for disabled drivers are kept free for people entitled to use them.
- Keep emergency access points clear by only parking in marked bays. Wheel clamps are used on some College sites.
- We are unable to take responsibility for any theft or damage that may occur.
- Please do not park in Willow Grove opposite the Trowbridge campus. This parking is reserved for residents only and cars that are parked illegally are likely to be clamped by the police.
- Please take particular care when negotiating the narrow Z-bends on the Trowbridge campus.
- The western car park at Chippenham is reserved for staff until 4.30pm each day. Students should use the eastern car park.
- Students wishing to take their vehicles on to the Lackham campus must register them with the Senior Warden.
- Students attending the Salisbury campus must park in the Tollgate Road car park and not in the car park surrounding the main site.
Normal road traffic regulations apply at all centres. That means tax, insurance, MOTs and speed limits!
Do not travel by car if you have a reasonable alternative. The College is working with Wiltshire Council to promote cycling and the use of public transport.
Emergency closure
The College is only very rarely closed by bad weather. If you are in any doubt and you have some distance to travel, please check the website, listen to your local radio station for announcements, or contact the College between 8.30am-7.30pm.
