Situated approximately 2 miles from the town centre of Middlesbrough, in the pleasant residential area of Acklam/Linthorpe, the Green Lane premises of the college are easily accessible by local transport services. For those using their own transport, the A19 provides the most direct route. Turn off the A19 at the intersection signposted for Acklam/Thornaby, taking the A1130 at the roundabout towards Middlesbrough. At the mini roundabout, take the first exit (signposted Middlesbrough Centre A1130) along Levick Crescent, and at the traffic island, turn right into Croft Avenue. Continue straight over at the traffic lights, passing Middlesbrough R.U.F.C. on Green Lane, to find CCAD on the left-hand side, at the junction with Roman Road.

Travelling by car, you can reach the campus from A19 approaching from the North and South. From the A19, turn onto the A689 sign posted Hartlepool. Continue on the A689 for approximately 5 miles to the town centre. At the traffic lights adjacent to the Fire Station, turn right onto Hucklehoven Way. There is on-street pay and display parking available within walking distance of the Church Square campus. Long distance coaches stop in Stockton Street too, only a few minutes walk from the campus. The train station is also situated off Church Street.
