Tour guides and coaches - Terrace Walk

Security improvement works at the entrance to York Street started on 3 January 2023 and will last for several months. Coach drop-off on Terrace Walk will generally still be available, but spaces will be limited.

Terrace Walk will be closed from Wednesday 8 February until Friday 17 February 2023, so please look for advance signage and use alternative parking. There are additional coach drop-off bays on North Parade and Pulteney Road. Terrace Walk may open earlier if works are completed before 17 February.

Pedestrian access to York Street’s attractions (Roman Baths, Pump Room, World Heritage Centre and Roman Baths Clore Learning Centre as well as local shops, cafés and restaurants) will be maintained at all times (please enter York Street, via the pedestrian access to the right alongside The Real Italian Ice Cream Co).
