About the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital
The Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital is one of Australia's largest hospitals and Queensland's major tertiary referral centre, in the Herston health precinct just north of the city alongside UQ's medical school.
Hospital parking is expensive and fills early on weekdays, which is exactly why the busway station at the front door matters: the M2 Metro runs straight there from the city every few minutes, and drop-off by bus beats circling the car park before an appointment.
On the day
For an appointment, aim to arrive a service early: the busway is frequent enough that a buffer costs you minutes, and it beats arriving flustered. The live board above shows exactly what's coming.
