Getting to Exeter University by bus

Our route 4 bus is really popular with students as it connects the University’s Streatham campus with the city centre to every 12 minutes, 6 days a week. Buses run from 6am until late evening Monday to Saturday. On Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights we run a night bus, Service UNI, linking student accommodation and the City Centre every 30 minutes between midnight and 4am.

Here’s a few ideas to get you going:

Exeter’s independents We’re proud of how many independent businesses you can find in the city centre. Everything from vintage clothing to crafts to coffee and cocktails.

Princesshay is home to many high end retailers including All Saints, Apple and Hollister. With many stores offering discounts for students there’s a great opportunity to pick up some great bargains!

Guildhall/Queen St Dining As well as a great selection of shops including GAME and Primark, Guildhall is also home to Queen Street Dining. Here, venues include Brewdog, Pho and The Terrace - a restaurant, cocktail bar, club and live music venue all in one. Plus, the fantastic Boom Battle Bar has a host of activities such as escape rooms and axe throwing!

Exeter Quayside is a short distance from the city centre and is home to a mix of bars, restaurants and clubs as well as a climbing centre and outdoor activity centre. Or why not hire bikes and cycle the Exe Trail from the city all the way to the seaside in Exmouth.

Save with Student travel

Why not bag unlimited Stagecoach bus travel for students with just one ticket. Whether you want a day in the library or a night on the town, a trip to the cinema or a pub lunch, never worry about getting there with our termrider ticket.

Buying your bus pass is quick and easy, if you buy via the app, you'll have the ticket on your phone when you're ready to use it! Plus you can track your bus too!

Don’t worry about change for the bus – pay at the start of the term and never have to think about scraping together travel money again. No more walking home from campus in the rain, no more expensive late-night taxis.

Once you buy your termrider that’s it, you just show it to the driver whenever you board a Stagecoach bus.
