EWRL17 will be held at Université Toulouse 1 Capitole, in the (beautiful) Arsenal Campus. The campus is located at the heart of the lively city of Toulouse, in South-West France.
If you arrive by train at Matabiau station or the bus station, the bus/metro will take you to Place du Capitole. It is the second stop after the SNCF station in the direction of Basso Cambo. There are two metro lines in Toulouse. A single metro ticket costs 1.60 Euros. You can buy it at the metro entrance.
If you arrive by car, opt for the western ring road, exit Ponts Jumeaux-Amidonniers (exit 30). It is quite difficult to park in the city center. The university parking lot is reserved for university staff and professors. However, there is a paid underground parking lot (Parking Arnaud Bernard) a 5-minute walk from the university.
If you arrive by plane, you will fly over the city center before landing. If you are lucky, you will see why Toulouse is called the pink city. At the airport, shuttle buses provide transfers between the airport and the city center. The nearest stop to the university is Compans Caffarelli. There is a special fare for young people (around 3 Euros for the transfer from the airport to the city center).
In any case, if you are too loaded down, there are taxi companies. Ask them to drop you off on Rue des Puits Creusés, in front of the entrance to the parking lot of the University of Toulouse Capitole.
Finally, since November 2007, Toulouse has had its own automatic bike rental system, VélôToulouse, allowing you to freely use bicycles throughout your stay in Toulouse.
