The Shuttle Bus
There’s a FREE shuttle bus that travels between the Riccarton Campus and the Scottish Borders Campus every week day, it’s such a great opportunity to pop up to Riccarton and see all the facilities up there. The bus leave Gala from the car park next to the doors of the high mill and you’ll arrive at the main entrance of Riccarton.
Currently the Shuttle bus times are:
| Leaves | Arrives | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Gala | 7.45am | | Riccarton | 8.50am |
| Gala | 3.45pm | | Riccarton | 4.50pm |
| Riccarton | 9.30am | | Gala | 10.45am |
| Riccarton | 5.05pm | | Gala | 6.10pm |
Make sure you arrive early to avoid missing the bus and book a seat by phoning the reception on: 01896 753351
The local bus journey from Riccarton into Edinburgh city centre is about half an hour and costs £1.20 each way. It makes for a pretty cheap day out of Gala! The union up there is a great please to relax with a coffee or a beer so you should make a stop there before going home again. Also, with the nighttime events in Riccarton being so varied we will find a way (probably a bus) to cart our students back and forth for the fun and frolics!
