Park and Ride

If you’re planning to drive to our offices, why not save yourself the hassle of parking and use the city’s Park and Ride service? It’s located just off the M275 at Tipner and the bus stops just outside our offices. Click here for more details.

Parking

There are limited parking spaces at Peninsular House as the car park is shared with several other users. Please park in a space marked ‘D’ - there are 11 spaces available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

If no parking is available alternative parking can be found nearby in the Ferry Port car park – continue down Wharf Road (stay in the left lane) towards the ferry port car entrance and the car park will be straight ahead. The car park costs £3 for up to 2 hours, £6 for 2 to 4 hours and £9 for 4 to 8 hours (pay at the machine before exiting).

There is also free parking in Stanley Road (and subsequent roads) to the left off Twyford Avenue. At the Rudmore Roundabout take the 1st exit (coming into the city) or the 3rd exit (coming from Portsmouth) on to Twyford Avenue. The office is about a 5 to 10 minute walk and can be accessed through the subway underneath the Roundabout.
