PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enhance the working efficiency by suppressing occurrence of cracks or the like attributable to the effect of the wind pressure on a front side of a glass substrate as much as possible, and realizing the conveyance at high speed when conveying the glass substrate hanged and supported by a gripping means (holding means) in the direction orthogonal to the surface of the glass substrate. SOLUTION: A glass substrate conveying apparatus includes a plurality of gripping means 3 which grip a plurality of parts in the width direction at an upper end of a glass substrate 2, and hang and support the glass substrate 2, a traveling unit 4 arranged above the glass substrate 2 to convey the glass substrate 2 hanged and supported by the plurality of gripping means 3 in the direction orthogonal to the surface of the glass substrate 2, and a travel-driving means 5 for traveling and driving the traveling unit 4 in the conveying direction. The plurality of gripping means 3 are attached to the traveling unit 4, and rockably held together with the glass substrate 2 in the direction orthogonal to the surface of the glass substrate 2.
