This guide is for all students,

staff and visitors!

This guide has been created to provide the very

best information for all visitors to Brooksby

Melton College, whether this is via public

transport, car, bicycle or on foot.

As part of a vision which holds sustainability and

the environment in mind, here at BMC we are

always keen to increase travel choice to our staff,

students and visitors.

This guide provides information on the transport

(bus and train) services available across Melton

Mowbray and the Leicestershire area to help

students and staff to plan their travel routes to

college.

Brooksby Hall - Brooksby campus

Artists impression of the new hospitality and catering building - Melton campus

BMC is situated on two

campuses and is well served

by a range of buses and trains

which makes for simple and

easy access.

BMC aims to ensure learning opportunities are

available and accessible to all of our students

wherever you live. This guide will also help staff

members to choose their mode of transport; we

hope you find this guide useful, informative and

helpful when planning your journey to BMC.

Leicestershire’s Choose How You Move

campaign helps people to get fit, save money,

have fun and help the environment.

Walking to BMC

Walking is a great way to stay healthy, help the

environment and save money!

Walking to BMC can help you keep fit and healthy.

Both campuses benefit from good pedestrian links within the

surrounding areas, which allows people to find their way to campus

easily and safely.

Walking 1 mile in 20 minutes uses as much

energy as:

Running a mile in 10 minutes

Cycling for 16 minutes

Aerobics for 16 minutes

Weight training for 17 minutes

Further information is available from:

www.leics.gov.uk/index/highways/passenger_

transport/choosehowyoumove/walking.htm

(4)

Cycling to BMC

Cycling is fun and good for you,

so get on your bike!

Cycle facilities are provided at both campus; including cycle parking,

lockers and changing facilities.

Cycling is one of the most environmentally friendly and sustainable modes

of travel as well as being fun and good for you.

Cycling is a great way to exercise, it has a low impact on your joints and

each two-mile trip can burn over 100 calories.

Tips for

safe cycling

Be bright – make sure drivers can see you. Wear brightly coloured

clothing and use lights when cycling at night.

Give warning - ride predictably and indicate to motorists before

changing direction or turning

Wear protection - cycle helmets are recommended for safe cycling

Maintain your bike – look after your bike and make sure it is safe to

cycle

Studies have shown that the typical

commuter who car shares saves over

£900 per year. How much could you save?

Car sharing

What is the real cost of running a car?

Is your car as cheap to run as you think? It is often very easy to overlook the real

cost the running of a car. As well as the cost of fuel, there are all the hidden extras

such as car tax, car insurance, MOT test, breakdown cover, servicing parts and

repairs. You may never have considered car sharing, however you could halve

your fuel costs, reduce stress and CO2 and make new friends.

The ideal car sharer could be sat in the next office or classroom and you have no

idea! We are currently considering an initiative to promote car sharing within the

college. You never know...it could be you!
