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, and is by far the busiest station to retain this configuration.
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 the deepest station in 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 (shown to the right of the picture). Following modernation, a purpose-built surface-level ticket hall has offered direct access to the new main entrance on Great Western Road via a glass-enclosed escalator (centre of picture behind the station building).
