Arriving by car
When arriving to Napoli from one of the highways, after you arrived to the city area after the toll barriers follow the signs for the TANGENZIALE, an internal highway crossing most of the city. Once you are on it, proceed to the Fuorigrotta exit. After you have reached it, pass the toll and take the exit ramp on the left. For the Via Claudio site, stay on a right lane and follow the signs to Facoltà di Ingegneria at the traffic light; the Campus should be in sight, on the right side of the Football Stadium.
Arriving by air
When arriving at Napoli Aeroporto di Capodichino, you have several options to reach our site. If you intend to use public transportation, the best choice is to use the Airport - Downtown shuttle. It runs every 30 minutes from 6.30 to 24.00 to the City center; look for the bus stop with the name C.L.P. outside the international arrivals at the airport. The fare is LIT 4.000 and should be paid to the driver. The driver does not accept foreign currency, but a bank and currency exchange is open from 9 to 18 in the terminal building. An automatic currency exchange and an ATM are also available inside the terminal in the international arrivals area. The bus stops at the main train station (Stazione Centrale), and ends its run at Piazza Municipio, very close to Molo Beverello, the main Ferry and Hydrofoil terminal to Capri, Ischia, and Sorrento. If you want to reach the Department directly from the Airoprt, you should get off the shuttle bus at the Stazione Centrale and then get the Metro (see Arriving by train).
If you intend to use a taxi, the taxi stand is also outside the international arrivals. The cost for a ride to the city is around LIT 35.000, while for a ride to the Department is around LIT 40.000. Be aware that for rides originating at the airport there is an additional charge. Of course you might choose to reach the Stazione Centrale (or Piazza Municipio) via the shuttle and then get a taxi from there.
If you plan to use a rented car, you can reach the Department via the TANGENZIALE. Just exit from the airport area through the exit boulevard, take the right at the end and then take the entrance ramp immediately on the left, following the directions to Fuorigrotta - Pozzuoli. Then follow the instructions listed in Arriving by car.
