How to get here and guidance for visitors
The University of Roehampton campus benefits from being at the heart of a busy network of transport links. Whether using 24-hour buses, the tube network at Hammersmith, Shepherd’s Bush and Putney, or through rail services from Barnes to Waterloo, all points across Central and West London are within easy reach of the university.
Approximately 21 buses an hour stop outside the main entrance of the University.
