Travel Information
Travelling to SHIFT's Bath offices by bike
Bath is a cycling paradise for those who enjoy short, steep hills. If you don't love challenging gradients, the city can be easily reached from the west via the relatively flat Bristol and Bath Bike Railway Path. It’s part of the Sustrans network, ridden regularly by members of our team, and can be accessed just a few metres from SHIFT’s HQ. Our Monmouth Street offices offer secure cycle rack storage, but ideally please let us know in advance.
Travelling to SHIFT's Bath offices by train
Bath is served by Bath Spa railway station. Journeys from London Paddington take less than 90 minutes, and Bristol is a mere 12 minutes away by train. From the station, taxis are always waiting outside, although SHIFT's offices are just a flat and pleasant 9-minute (0.5-mile) walk away.
Travelling to SHIFT's Bath offices by car
Please let us know in advance if you’re planning on visiting by car as we have a limited number of parking spaces available at our Monmouth Street offices and may be able to accommodate your vehicle. Otherwise, Bath has a number of ‘pay and display’ options, including the large Charlotte Street Car Park, which is just a 5-minute (0.3-mile) walk away.
Travelling to SHIFT's Bath offices by air
SHIFT’s Bath offices are less than 20 miles from Bristol Airport, where flights are available to and from most major European cities. It’s a pleasant 45-minute drive away, with hire cars and taxis available on site. You can also take the ‘Air Decker’ bus from Bristol Airport that stops a short distance from our offices within the hour.
