Welcome to the BMC Travel Guide 2017/18This 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 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
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.

Running a mile in 10 minutes
Cycling for 16 minutes

Studies have shown that the typical commuter who car shares saves over £900 per year. How much could you save?
Car sharingWhat 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!
