Travel to UTC Portsmouth

Just off the M27/A27/A3 intersection, UTC Portsmouth is easily accessible. We are just 10 minutes walk from Cosham or Hilsea train station and have a number of bus routes that stop right outside the college.

Good onward links from the ferry and hovercraft terminals also make UTC Portsmouth an attractive option for students from the Isle of Wight and Gosport.
