Public transport
There are several ways to reach the BRE Science Park via public transport.
Travelling by car
From the M1
Northbound: Leave the M1 at Junction 6 for the A405, signposted to St Albans. Follow the tight bend of the slip road round and join the southbound A405 towards Watford (stay in the right-hand lane to join the A405 safely).
Southbound: Leave the M1 at Junction 6 for the A405, signposted North Watford.
Once on the A405 heading towards Watford, after half a mile, turn left at the traffic lights into Bucknalls Lane (signposted to BRE). Our entrance is on the left at the end of the lane, after the motorway bridge.
From the M25
Leave the M25 at Junction 21A (signposted ‘A405 (M1 South), St Albans’). Turn south onto the A405, following signs to Watford and Harrow. After half a mile, continue straight on at traffic lights, passing under the M1. After a further half mile, at the next traffic lights, turn left into Bucknalls Lane (signposted to BRE). Our entrance is on the left at the end of the lane, after the motorway bridge.
