    Don't know about the south-west corner but there are eight or so under cover in the newish multi-level car park and a fair few around the central courtyard south of the Anne Ferguson building.

    If the neurology department is where I think it is, then these racks are pretty handy:

    I think the neurology building is just at the southern end of that car park.

    There are racks right by the front door of DCN and others round the corner which you can see in Frenchy's photo.

    According to photo in above link -

    "

    Cyclists Must Dismount Prior To ENTRY

    "

    Presume because of barrier. Perhaps it should have a bike bypass.

    OpenStreetMap shows the same set of parking as above and confirms the location of the Neurology Building - http://osm.org/go/evfLHYynz--?m=

    Handy thread, thanks. I discover that the 'getting to Western General' booklet has a 'by air' but not 'by bike' section: http://www.nhslothian.scot.nhs.uk/goingtohospital/locations/documents/western_map.pdf

    look back further in our archives and you will find correspondence between me and various WG people about this. obviously in vain.

    Since I was last here, the path via craigleith hill crescent has been improved , but the. Once you try to head around the north of the Anne Ferguson Bldg via the car parks, there's a sign saying 'all cyclists must dismount'.

    Why? There are pedestrian routes painted on, but it's mainly just narrow roads. Presume 10mph , lots of bumps. Can't see any reason for cyclists to be on foot.
