Travel

Saarland Informatics Campus is easy to reach by car via motorways A1 from the north, A6 from the east, and French A4/A320 from the south and west. The parking lot Uni Ost (max. 3 €/day) is next to the workshop venue. By train, Saarbrücken Hbf can be reached by high-speed ICE trains running between Frankfurt and Paris as well as regional trains from Frankfurt via Mainz, Koblenz via Trier, Mannheim, and Metz. From the station, city buses on multiple lines run to Campus; get off at the Universität Mensa bus stop. The local Airport Saarbrücken (SCN) has flights to/from Berlin, Hamburg, and Luxemburg. It is connected to the city centre by buses running roughly every 60 minutes (approx. 25 minutes travel time), but there is no direct public transport link between the airport and Campus.
