We're making it easier for you to incorporate cycling, running or walking into your journey and transform your commute into one that is healthier for yourself and the environment. 

We know that many in our community may wish to find alternative means of transport to campus rather than relying solely on public transport. Wherever possible, we encourage and aim to support staff and students in making their transport to campus - and across London - more active. 

Implementing some level of active travel into your commute has been shown to improve your health and can bring significant environmental benefits.

It may not be possible to remove public transport entirely. However, through combining public transport with some element of active travel - whether it’s walking from a hub station or cycling part of the way - there are opportunities to find a way that is best for yourself, your health, and the environment. 

New safety measures at South Kensington

It is now no longer possible to use the cycle lane alongside the Imperial College Road/Exhibition Road exit barrier while it is down. Instead, we request all two-wheeled traffic to either exit via the barrier or, if preferred, dismount and push their bikes along the pavement exit.

Please note that this change is a pilot scheme, introduced urgently to enhance safety. We consider it a temporary measure until we can implement a more secure exit option for two-wheeled riders. If you have any suggestions or feedback, do feel free to contact us at car.park@imperial.ac.uk.
