    About

    The St Andrew Square tram stop is a central transport hub located on the east side of the historic St Andrew Square in Edinburgh’s New Town. This island platform serves as a key connection point for those visiting the city centre, situated just a short walk from Edinburgh Waverley railway station and the Edinburgh Bus Station. Visitors using this stop can easily explore the nearby Georgian architecture of George Street, the luxury shops of Multrees Walk, and the scenic St Andrew Square Gardens, which feature the prominent Melville Monument.

    This tram stop features level boarding and is 100% wheelchair accessible, with a dedicated marker on the platform indicating the best place for wheelchair users to board the middle carriage. The platform includes tactile paving along the edge for safety and has seating available for those who need a moment to rest. Ticketing terminals at the stop are equipped with Braille for visually impaired users. While there are no toilet facilities directly on the platform, several accessible toilets and a Changing Places toilet are located nearby within the St James Quarter and Edinburgh Waverley station.

    Costa Coffee Coaster

    St Andrew Square tram stop is a stone’s throw from the St James Shopping Centre, which is one of my favourite places to go in the city - it even has a Changing Places toilet! As you might expect, it also borders St Andrew Square, which is a pleasant spot for a lunch break for those working in or visiting Edinburgh. There’s even a Costa in the park for anyone who fancies a quick coffee before hopping on the tram.

    Tram stop close to transport hubs

    This tram stop is well-connected to some of the big transport hubs for Edinburgh. Waverley train station and the bus station are both a very short walk away. It's very easy to board the tram as the access points are completely level with a minimal gap between the tram and the tram stop. The tram network can easily transport you around other areas in Edinburgh very easily and is an accessible way of getting around!
