TRAFFIC REGULATION

The current car parking capacity at NGH provides for 250 parking spaces on site including designated disability parking. This caters for staff and visitors. There are in excess of 100,000 patient and visitor cars using the parking capacity annually. Therefore, future plans include provision to increase parking capacity to 506 spaces.

Due to safety considerations for staff who work on shifts it is not possible to allow visitors park in the underground car parks after 7.00pm
