3.2.1.3 Where do students travel from?<br />

In 2009, a total <strong>of</strong> 948 students provided a partial postcode (Postal District). Table 3.36 and Figure<br />

3.16 below show that most students travel from the south and west <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> which is quite<br />

different from staff who live in areas closer to the coast. Car drivers travel greater distances than<br />

those who use other modes <strong>of</strong> transport.<br />
