Here’s the rough guide to getting here from Glasgow:

• Follow M8 west heading for the airport, etc • Junction 28 is for the airport; Junction 28A is for Irvine; Junction 29 for Paisley takes you to AFRC. • NB these 3 junctions are only 100m apart: before the airport (junction 28) get into the middle lane, as the left hand lane becomes the exit for J28A and you will miss junction 29. • Leave at Junction 29 marked for Paisley (St James’ Interchange) • The slip road takes you up to a roundabout with traffic lights. Keep initially to the right hand lane, marked A726(N). Take the 4th exit off the roundabout, signed for Bishopton, Inchinnan and . You will find you are driving up the side of the airport. Continue straight on, following signs for Erskine, Inchinnan and Bishopton. At the second roundabout (just after a Bible Centre) turn right for , Inchinnan and “India of Inchinnan” This is Greenock Road. • Follow Greenock Road straight along , through a set of traffic lights and past the “India of Inchinnan” building (a long white building on the right) • Turn right at the roundabout, marked Inchinnan Business Park, (into Inchinnan Drive) and take the first right. • Park at the far end of our building and walk back to the centre front of the building to gain entry.

Alternative route:

• Follow M8 west heading for the airport, Greenock etc • Exit at junction 26 for Renfrew and follow the signs for Renfrew (takes you north of the M8) • At the traffic‐light controlled roundabout, take the left lane for Renfrew. • Go straight on through all traffic lights and roundabouts, following any signs for Inchinnan or Erskine. • In the middle of Renfrew there is a staggered junction with two sets of traffic lights controlling different directions. Take the left hand lane and go straight ahead, following the signs for Inchinnan and Erskine • Continue straight on through several roundabouts and traffic lights • Pass the Normandy Hotel (on your right) and cross a metal bridge and a stone bridge, controlled by traffic lights – fork right at the end of the bridge (and cross another bridge) • At the first roundabout, marked Inchinnan Business Park, turn left (into Inchinnan Drive), then first right • Park at the far end of our building and walk back to the centre of the building to gain entry.
