Travel

By Car

The College is on the A30, 19 miles from central London and about a mile south-west of the town of Egham. It is two miles from Junction 13 of the M25.

You can park on any of the college car parks. We recommend car park 4 and car park 14 for larger vehicles.

Directions from the M25

  • After leaving the M25, follow the A30 west (signposted Bagshot and Camberley); this is the Egham bypass.
  • At the end of the Egham bypass, continue on the A30 up Egham Hill (a petrol station is on your left).
  • The main College entrance is on the left immediately after the second footbridge.

Directions from the West

  • Leave the M3 at junction 3, at the roundabout take the 1st exit onto the A322.
  • Proceed under the road bridge and turn left, then merge onto the A30.
  • At the roundabout, take the second exit onto the A30.
  • Continue on the A30, through Sunningdale towards Staines-upon-Thames.
  • The main College entrance is on the right immediately before the footbridge.

Avoiding the M25

  • To avoid the M25 when travelling from the South or South West on the M4 or the M3, take the A329(M) from the M4 at junction 10, or the A322 from the M3 at junction 3.
  • The A329(M) becomes the A329 at Bracknell, and then the A322, and connects with the A30 at Bagshot. Continue on the A30 through Sunningdale and Virginia Water towards Staines-upon-Thames and you will pass the College campus.
  • To avoid the M25 from the M40 coming from the Midlands, leave the M40 at junction 4 on to the A404 towards Maidenhead. Join the A308 at Maidenhead which will take you through Windsor and Old Windsor. Turn right at the roundabout after a Harvester Pub called the Bells of Ousley for a shortcut to the College through Englefield Green village on the A328.

By Rail

The College is connected by fast rail links to the rest of the country, with connections to London and Reading stations.
