The term Pasientreiser (patient travel) is used to describe travel to and from authorised treatments. The hospital is responsible for providing patient travel and will meet the cost of the cheapest mode of travel on behalf of the patient. You can read more on the Pasientreiser website. The website also contains information about the Helseekspress and Helsebuss bus services.
Bus
Several scheduled bus routes stop at the hospital. There is also a number of commuter bus routes running between different parts of Bergen and the hospital.
Skyss has produced a dedicated route map for Haukeland University Hospital (PDF) showing which bus routes stop at the hospital.
Tide and Nettbuss operate express coaches on several long-distance routes to the centre of Bergen.

Bergen Train Station in the centre of Bergen is the closest mainline station to Haukeland University Hospital. The distance between the station and the hospital is around 2.5 km and is served by several bus routes and the Bybanen Light Rail (line 2).
Airplane
Bergen Airport in Flesland is just under 20 km from Haukeland University Hospital. There is no direct airport bus between Haukeland and Bergen Airport, but you can take the airport bus to and from the centre of Bergen.
Waiting areas
There is a separate waiting area near the reception in the main hospital building (Sentralblokka) for patients and next-of-kin waiting for transport.
Beklageleg er det avgrensa parkering utanfor avdelinga, men det finnast handicap-parkering der og det er mogeleg å sleppe nokon av. Parkeringsplassar finnast på Haukeland universitetssjukehus sitt hovudområde. Det er viktig at du bereknar god tid, slik at du kan finne ein parkeringsplass før timen hos oss.
For dei som av ulike årsakar må bruke bil, er det parkeringsplassar på ulike områder på og i nærleiken av sjukehuset.
Parking facilities at Haukeland are divided into separate zones in and around the hospital grounds.
Parking spaces are very limited, however. Out of consideration for those who need to travel to the hospital using their own car, we strongly urge those who are able to do so to use public transport.
