Parking your car or parking for visitors

During main holiday periods, the car park gates at certain sites may be opened to allow pick up and collection, although it is advisable to check directly with the Housing Management Officer as to the exact dates and times.

Parking around the Universities and Colleges is extremely limited. If you do bring your car to Leeds, it is unlikely that you will be able to drive to University. The public transport system in Leeds is good, and most of our developments are within walking distance or a short bike ride away from the city centre and the main universities. This is a list of parking facilities at our main sites

Mill Street

There is no visitor parking available at Mill Street. Parents and friends are encouraged to park at the Market NCP car park, the market car park or the West Yorkshire Playhouse Car Park which is just across the road and is pay and display. There is very limited tenant parking at a quarterly fee.

Royal Park Road

There is no visitor parking on site but the roads surrounding the development are not restricted. Tenants can apply for parking at an annual fee

Grayson Heights and Argie Avenue

These sites operate on a first come first served basis and each have car parks at the front of the building. The car parking barriers are not in use apart from on special occasions.

Alexander Court and New York Street

These buildings are all located in the centre centre – they do not have on-site parking, so it is advisable not to bring your car to Leeds unless you have alternative parking arrangements off-site.

Garden House

This site has on-site free parking, operated on a first-come-first-served basis.

Shay Street and Holborn Terrace

There is on site parking at Shay Street and Holborn Terrace, tenants need to apply to Leeds City Council for a permit which is free of charge. If you have a vehicle it's important to apply for a permit to avoid receiving penalty notices and fines. Find out how to apply for a permit here.
