By public transport

By train and bus

The most convenient bus from Waverley Station is the number 8.

Exit Waverley Station by going up the escalators that take you to Princes Street. Turn right and then cross over to Princes Street  Follow the road down the hill skirting around the St. James Centre to get to the Leith Street bus stop (Stop JD).

The single bus fare is £2.00  The buses accept contactless payment with a card,  If using cash you need the exact fare.

After a large roundabout, the number 8 bus turns down a long hill (Broughton Street). You may see the Real Foods shop on the right hand side. The bus continues down the hill and you can see the Mansfield Traquair Centre (this looks like a large church) on the right, followed by Drummond Community High School.

Stay on the bus past the roundabout and the bus stop immediately after it. Alight from the bus at the next stop on Rodney Street, at the bottom of the hill before the traffic lights. Looking to your right you will see Broughton Road and a large Tesco store.

Cross the road onto Broughton Road, walk past Tesco and then turn first left down Logie Green Road. Broadside is at the end of the road on the right, just past Beaverbank Office Park. Turn right after the office, just before the flats and then next first right will take you into the CAS car park. The entrance is at the far end. CAS is on the first floor.
