Kelvinbridge subway station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kelvinbridge subway station serves the Kelvinbridge area of Glasgow, Scotland. It is named after the bridge crossing the River Kelvin, next to the station. This station is one of the two serving Kelvingrove Park, the other being Kelvinhall.

The station retains the original island platform layout.

The station has a car park, built on the site of the goods yard at Kelvinbridge on the Stobcross to Maryhill Central line.

The station is one of the deepest on the network due to its close proximity to the River Kelvin, and was originally entered through a tenement block on South Woodside Road with access to Great Western Road via an external cast iron staircase descending from the eponymous bridge. Following modernation, a purpose-built surface-level ticket hall offers direct access to the new main entrance on Great Western Road via a glass-enclosed escalator.
