Travelling to Cambridge
If you are travelling from abroad Stansted, London's 3rd airport, is approximately 35 minutes drive from either Cambridge or Chelmsford.
By Train
Cambridge trains leave from London Kings Cross or London Liverpool Street. Cambridge station is about half a mile from both the campus and cinema. For train times please call national rail enquiries on 08457 484950.
By Bus/Coach
Buses and coaches from most routes stop at Drummer Street Bus Station. The Cinema is about a 5 minutes on foot. Emmanuel St then turn right onto St. Andrew’s Street. You’ll shortly see the Regal Pub and Cinema on the right hand side.
By Road
Cambridge is at the junction of a number of major routes, including the M11 and A14.
If you are coming by the M11, leave the motorway at junction 11, signposted South Cambridge and Harston. Follow the signs to the city centre. This will take you through a village called Trumpington. Keep going straight on along Trumpington Road indicated on the map.
This road will eventually terminate in two mini-roundabouts. At the first mini-roundabout go straight across, but keep in the right hand lane. At the second mini-roundabout turn right into Lensfield Road.
This becomes Gonville Place- on your right there is Queen Anne’s Car Park, we suggest you park there. Although the University is also very close, we’re afraid there is no free parking!
If you are travelling on the A14, leave the road at the junction marked Milton, Waterbeach and Ely. At the end of the slip road there is a roundabout. Take the exit signposted Cambridge. You are now on Milton Road. Follow this road for about a mile over several sets of traffic lights, until you reach another roundabout. Turn left here and proceed onto the next roundabout, where you should go straight across. Continue straight on and you will eventually be on Elizabeth Way, which crosses the river. Follow this until you reach the next roundabout and go straight over. This is now East Road. The Grafton Centre will be on your right which is a good car park. Anglia Ruskin University is a little further down on the left. Go across the junction and note the Swimming baths on the left. Next to that is Queen Anne NCP Car Parks. If you park here you’re under 10 minutes walk to the Cinema.
The same directions will apply if you are travelling down the A10 from King's Lynn, as you will reach the same roundabout which connects with the A14.
Parking Facilities
Please note that parking is not available on the Cambridge University campus, or at the Arts Picturehouse. Please use the Cambridge Park & Ride system or public car parks. Some of these car parks are pay and display so you will need change before you enter the car park.
