Currently the area of Careggi Hospital and the surrounding road network are undergoing major modernization works; we apologize for the inconvenience caused by the numerous construction sites, both inside and outside Careggi Hospital, for the unavoidable mobility delays.

To facilitate the movement within the Hospital area (see Map of the hospital), there is a free shuttle bus service.
