Coming to Strasbourg:
- By train
All trains will arrive to and depart from the central station in Strasbourg, see the SNCF website. The station is very close to the historical center and many trams and buses depart from it (especially tram C going to campus, see below).
- By Car
Driving to Strasbourg is relatively straightforward; either A4 if you arrive from the north or A35 if you arrive from the south, roughly. Please be aware, however, that parking in Strasbourg can be quite difficult (on campus, it is nearly impossible). If your hotel does not provide you with a parking spot, you can use one of the Park & Ride parking ran by the local public transport company, see here.
- By aircraft
The closest airport is Strasbourg-Entzheim. From there you can either:
- take a taxi to Strasbourg (usually 40 - 50€),
- take a train from the airport station to the central station in Strasbourg. To access the station, leave the airport and cross the footbridge. Tickets may be purchased on the platform; you can either buy a single trip to Strasbourg (2.70€) or a combined ticket including access to all public transport in town, valid for 1 hour and 30 minutes starting from the time you buy it (4.40€).
If you arrive in Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport, with Air France, you can buy a combined ticket for your flight and train using TGV AIR; simply search for Strasbourg as your final destination instead of Paris. If you fly with another company, there are direct trains to Strasbourg leaving from the Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport. You have to buy the train ticket separately, please keep in mind that tickets should be booked in advance (usually 1 or 2 months before the trip), for instance here.
Coming to the UFR de Mathématiques et d'Informatique:
The conference venue is located in the "Grand Amphi Maths", UFR de Mathématiques et d'Informatique, on the Esplanade campus, very close to the city center (map of the campus). The exact address is
- UFR de mathématiques et d'Informatique, 7 rue René Descartes, 67084 Strasbourg Cedex, France
From the main station, you have several options:
- The safest option is to take tram C from the station. You must then leave the tram at the station « Université », and walk south for a few minutes until you see a seven-story tower on your left; just after, turn left on the UFR de Mathématiques et Informatique. The whole trip takes 20-25 minutes. You have access to maps and schedules on the website of CTS, the local public transport company.
- Walking is usually nice and goes through the historical center (cathedral, etc.). It takes 35-40 minutes.
- Taking a taxi should cost around 20€.
