Finding Us...

New road signage is now in place (December 2006). The University of Reading is signified by UoR.

From the north :
* Travel towards the town centre
* Join the inner distribution road and following the signs for the UoR.
* Just after a major junction with a right turning to the A33, leave the inner distribution road by the exit on the left, signposted to the UoR.
* The Oracle shopping Centre is on your left hand side.
* Still following the signs to the University travel along London Street and Silver Street.
