## Parking at the University of Glasgow Campus for the Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery

There is no visitor car park directly at the site, but the University of Glasgow provides Park and Ride at Kelvinbridge Subway station (gla.ac.uk). Campus parking is restricted to permit holders on weekdays, so it is not a straightforward daytime option for museum visitors (gla.ac.uk).

Free campus parking is available after 5pm and at weekends (gla.ac.uk). Drivers using the university’s evening or weekend arrangement should enter the main campus via University Avenue at Pearce Lodge, which is the stated visitor entrance (gla.ac.uk).

## Hillhead Parking Pressure and Restrictions Around University Avenue

Hillhead Street has metered on-street parking near the gallery, making the surrounding streets useful for short visits where a marked space is available (sonic-a.co.uk). Blue Badge holders can park there free of charge and for any length of time (sonic-a.co.uk).

Weekday daytime demand is likely to be strongest around university activity, while evening and weekend parking follows the University of Glasgow’s free campus arrangement after 5pm and at weekends (gla.ac.uk). The site is on University Avenue, and the campus entrance for visitors is at Pearce Lodge (gla.ac.uk).
