Travelling by public transport
York Park and Ride services
The Monkgate Building is directly on the Monks Cross (Silver Line, bus 9) Park and Ride line, and within a 6-minute walk of other Park and Ride services.
Nearby bus stops and services
The primary bus operator in York is First Bus, although there are a small number of services operated by Coastliner/York & Country, Connexions, East Yorkshire, and York Pullman.
There is a bus stop (named “Trinity Methodist Church”) directly outside the Monkgate building, and bus routes serving the city centre are all within a 10 minute walk of the building.
Travelling by car
Parking outside the church building on Monkgate itself is limited to residents, but there are several parking options available nearby.
Free parking (6-7 mins walk)
We have arranged free parking a short walk from the building at Park Grove Primary Academy, Park Grove, York, YO31 8LG.
From Huntington Road, turn onto Park Grove, and drive into the school’s car park. On Sunday mornings, we share this parking with another nearby church, so it is important to park at the far end of the car park, leaving the end closest to the car park entrance for attendees at the other church.
