Shields Road subway station is a station of Glasgow Subway, serving the Kingston and Pollokshields areas of Glasgow, Scotland. Nearby is Charles Rennie Mackintosh's Scotland Street School Museum. This is one of four stations which has Park and Ride facilities.

The station has been left in an industrial area by post-war reconstruction and is isolated from surrounding areas by the M8 motorway and approach roads for the Kingston Bridge. There were 460,000 passengers in the 12 months to 31 March 2005 [2]. These trips were largely generated by the adjacent 'Park & Ride' car park. The carpark was recently rebuilt with over 800 spaces in a project that ended in September 2006.
