You will notice that certain access/circular routes are coloured in dark pink, denoting roads which are two way and without rising bollard restrictions etc. If you are travelling into Cambridge by car the best option is to use the Park and Ride car park on Madingley Road. Madingley Park and Ride: http://www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/transport/around/parkandride/madingleyroad/. It is a 10 minute walk down Madingley Road to the Computer Laboratory on JJ Thomson Avenue, so we suggest you park at the Park and Ride then walk to the venue.
