3. Bus: A mere five-minute walk away from the Alan Berry building, which holds the university’s main reception area, is the Pool Meadow bus station. Students can obtain student travel cards from the main bus operators - National Express and Stagecoach Unirider. Students can expect to pay around £2.20 for a one-way ticket on a Network West Midlands bus. If they plan on travelling often, students can also go for the day saver pass, which gives you access to any bus journey for that particular day and costs about £4.
