PARKING:

Car-parking is available for visitors to the Atkins Centre and Centre Staff alike at the front of the school, please enter by the gates from Sevenoaks Way (opposite Cornwall Drive). Please do not park in unmarked spaces, or in marked visitors’ spaces (unless previously booked). Parking is provided on a first come, first served, basis. If there are no spaces available there is alternative parking for Atkins Centre visitors on the roads surrounding the College. Please use the pedestrian access at the front of the College on Sevenoaks Way, if necessary.

Visitors to the Atkins Centre are advised that under no circumstances are they to seek to park/gain access via the rear of the College, to ensure the College maintains its safeguarding responsibilities.

 

DRESS CODE:

Just a reminder that all attendees are expected to be dressed in a professional and business-like manner unless otherwise stated in the event details.

 

 

ULEZ Charges:

The Atkins Centre falls just inside the new ULEZ congestion zone, which means if you have

a non-compliant car you will need to pay a £12.50 fee on the day you visit the centre. The

government have deemed this a non-claimable expense meaning that TKAT are not allowed

to refund it to staff.

 

A lot of cars are ULEZ compliant, so you won’t have to pay the fee. check your car by clicking here

If you don’t have a compliant car, then you need to pay the fee by midnight on the third

day following your journey. Visit Transport for London for information on how to pay.

Alternatively, for anyone owning a non-compliant vehicle you do have a couple of options to

avoid paying the fee.

 

● Ask if there is someone else travelling from your school (or a local school) you can

car share with.

 

● Travel by train to Sidcup Station which is 2 miles from The Atkins Centre. (Train

fares, taxi fares, bus fares & parking can be reimbursed via expenses providing you

get a receipt) You can get a bus from the station which is around a 30-minute

journey.

 

● Park outside the zone and arrange a taxi to take you in the last part of the journey.

There are limited parking spaces at Farningham Road Station, South Darenth, DA4

9JB which can be pre booked for a cost of £4.60 per day by clicking here you can
