From 1 June 2023, a Low Emission Zone (LEZ) came into force in Glasgow. All vehicles entering the city centre zone area must meet the less-polluting emission standards or face a penalty charge. There are some exemptions. Please visit Glasgow City Council’s webpage for full details.
We encourage conference and event attendees to plan their travel to the campus as sustainably as possible. Please visit Sustainable Strathclyde for information on various modes of public transport, cycling in the city and greener driving.
If you are travelling to and from the Technology and Innovation Centre with other delegates, or organising excursions as part of your conference, you may wish to consider group travel options. The Glasgow Convention Bureau can assist with finding local providers, from taxis and coaches to chauffeur travel.
Places for Everyone is a £2M collaboration project led by the University of Strathclyde with Glasgow City Council, City of Glasgow College and Sustrans, aiming to form an active, safe and walkable Learning Quarter through the creation of an innovative urban realm.
The project will deliver a range of active travel solutions including local community footpaths, footways and streets to allow people to move freely between the University of Strathclyde, City of Glasgow College, Glasgow Caledonian University and the city centre.
All our conferencing spaces in the Technology and Innovation Centre are fully accessible, and our friendly, professional team is on-hand to offer directions, assistance and advice.
If you or any of your delegates have specific access requirements, please let our Operations team know and they’ll be happy to take you through our emergency arrangements in more detail, if appropriate.
