Press the button on the left side of the barrier and identify yourself as a visitor of the laboratory. The barrier will be opened and you’ll be able to park your car on the campus. There is a large parking behind the B-block.
Public transport
- From Brussels airport to Ghent:
- Take a train to Brussels Central Station.
- Take a train to Ghent from there: All trains with destination Oostende, Knokke-Blankenberge and Ghent are OK (take an IC –Inter City– train, other types of trains make too frequent stops). The train ride to Ghent takes about 40 min.
