Unilink info for new students

We know that starting university, not knowing anyone or where you are going can be rather daunting. Unilink is a dedicated network of bus services created for students and staff of the University of Southampton.

Our dedicated app and website make travelling by bus as easy as possible.

Unilink is operated  by local bus operator Bluestar and if you have a student annual pass, you are also entitled to travel on their bus routes within their Southampton Zone.

If you are staying in University of Southampton halls, you will be issued with a bus pass accessible via the Unilink app.  However, if you are staying elsewhere locally, you have the option to purchase annual, or multi-trip tickets, which can save you money and help speed up boarding times.

The app also makes planning your journey easy, plus you can track your bus in live time, which updates every 10 seconds.
