Please note from Saturday 31st March you will not be able to park on the temporary overspill car parks on Ashburner Way and James Freel Close.

Plenty of car parking will be available on the main Furness College Car Park on Bessemer Way.  This car park now includes additional parking found where the temporary construction workshops and compound used to be. This additional car parking will be resurfaced and lined over the summer holiday period to minimise disruption.

Parking in front of the new building is for accessible parking only. New access control bollards are soon to be in place at the entrance to the new build.  Once completed, they will give controlled access and dedicated parking for staff, students and visitors who are disabled.

Directions to Bessemer Way Car Park
Route from M6 (Junction 36) to Furness College.

From exit 36 on the M6 take the A590 and follow signs to Barrow-in-Furness.  Continue on the A590 all the way to Barrow-in-Furness. Upon reaching Barrow, continue until you pass ASDA on the left-hand side. Shortly after Asda you enter a one-way system. Continue until you come to a right turn into Ashburner Way. You will now see the college in front of you. At the end of Ashburner Way, turn right into Iron Works Road and then first left into Bessemer Way. The college car park is at the end of the road on the right hand side.

Please drive carefully and park considerately at all times on the college campus. Thank you for your support and co-operation.
