The green route is one of three walking guides to give disabled staff and students an insight as to what to expect on campus. The main entrance to the green zone is via Main Quad Gate Entrance.
Accessible walking guides
UCL's accessible walking guides will give you two views of the Green Route around campus.
For information on routes around individual buildings please, contact the occupying department.
These guides were written in late August and it should be recognised that as we return to campus some changes may need to be made.
We hope you find these guides useful and would welcome any feedback on how they could be improved.

It provides a discussions point as to whether the routes are suitable for them with their line managers / departments.
