Car use at QMU
We operate a needs-based parking policy for staff or
students, meaning that those who have a genuine need,
such as childcare, will receive a permit in preference to
others. You will require a parking permit to park on
campus. Permits are priced according to the CO2
emissions of the vehicle. Our car park has several
disabled parking spaces located close to the main
entrance. Where appropriate, a disabled parking permit
can be provided as a reasonable adjustment for an
eligible disabled student at no cost. If you would like to
find out if you qualify for a disabled parking permit, please
email [email protected]. Car users MUST access the
campus off the A1. Please note that some Sat Nav
systems direct you to Musselburgh Station – cars cannot
access QMU at this point.
