## Parking on the University of Glasgow Campus

The University of Glasgow’s Gilmorehill campus has designated parking locations including North Front West visitor parking, Southpark House, Professor Square and Rankine (University of Glasgow). Campus parking enquiries are handled by the Campus Parking Team, and permit applications are available through the university’s estates service (University of Glasgow).

Visitor parking is charged at £10 per day or £5 per half-day, with spaces subject to availability and charges reviewed annually (University of Glasgow). The visitor arrangement is the clearest official option for a short campus visit, while staff and other regular users should use the university’s permit application process rather than relying on visitor bays.

## Other Car Parks Near the Campus

For drivers who do not need to park inside the university grounds, the nearby area includes off-campus options around Hillhead, Glasgow G3 and the wider west-end streets. These can be useful when campus visitor parking is full, although the most convenient choice depends on the final building and the length of the stay.

The practical off-campus choices listed nearby are Parksy spaces, with hourly and daily prices shown in the next section.
