Car Parking

Patient and Visitor Parking, including parking for blue badge holders and drop off/ pick up areas is available at each of our hospital sites. Charges are made for parking, with concessions for certain types of user, including free parking for blue badge holders.

We use signage with different colours and symbols to designate available parking as detailed below and also undertake parking enforcement based upon the rules detailed on this signage and the following table below.

For further information on parking at each hospital site, including payments and concessions, please see information following the table.
