Why build next to a station?

Building a university campus next to a major transport hub like Temple Meads station significantly boosts accessibility. It makes it easier for students, staff, and the public to reach the campus, especially commuters. This location also helps integrate the university more closely with the city, making it a visible and convenient 'front door' for visitors and businesses.
