Local Information:

Huddersfield is located in the centre of England between Manchester and Leeds. There are good road and rail links to Huddersfield from the major cities in the UK and people wishing to travel by car and train should consult the University’s web based travel guide.

For those travelling from abroad, could I recommend using Manchester Airport as there is a very regular train service from the Airport to Huddersfield.

The Conference will take place in the Canalside West lecture theatres (building 16 on the campus map). All lectures will be in room CWS/10 and registration/posters and refreshments will be in room CWG/01.

Car Parking

There is very limited car-parking on the University Campus and conference delegates are advised to use local town centre car parks which are a short walking distance from the central campus. A map identifying the location of the town centre car parks can be printed from the University website.

Further information about the meeting can be obtained from Dr Andrew Laws
