Accessibility by various means of transport
The University of Stuttgart's campus is divided into two major locations and several smaller areas.
If arriving by car, please note: The Stuttgart urban area is considered to be a „low emission zone”. This means that every car must have a green emissions sticker to be able to drive and park in Stuttgart. All vehicles with diesel engines classified under the Euro IV emissions standard and above are also banned from the city year-round. The City of Stuttgart has also put together some additional information on the ban on diesel vehicles [de].
