Getting to and from the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital

Questions have been asked about the public transport links to and from Glasgow's west end to the new Queen Elizabeth University Hospital. There are general concerns about the cost, length of time for the journey and access to information about the bus routes.

In June, I visited a patient at the new hospital and went via the subway to Govan and a bus to the main entrance at the Arrival Square. It took about 30 minutes each way. 

Now, there is a new direct bus service, Service 15 available from Byres Road, up to every 30 minutes, daily via Maryhill and Partick and this will replace service 19 between Summerston and Byres Road. Service 15 will use stance 4 at both Partick bus station and Arrival Square at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

Bus station at the entrance to the new hospital.

I am interested in hearing from residents who have any issues or concerns about access to the new hospital.
