Hospital Parking Beneath the Main Entry Plaza
The hospital’s on-site car park is P5, located underneath the hospital building and operated through the Health NSW parking service. Drivers enter via the main entry plaza and take the ramp down to the car park (schn.health.nsw.gov.au). The hospital parking page lists $20.10 for 3 to 4 hours, $23.20 for 4 to 5 hours, and $25.80 for 5 hours or more, with a maximum daily rate of $25.80 (parking.health.nsw.gov.au).
Free parking is available for the Emergency Department, while free parking is valid for only one parking session per day in the Secure Parking information (schn.health.nsw.gov.au; secureparking.com.au). The Emergency Department also directs drivers to P5 via the main entry plaza (schn.health.nsw.gov.au).
Parksy Spaces Within 420 Metres of the Hospital
Parksy lists an outdoor space in Westmead with 24/7 access, 290 metres from the hospital, at $13 a day. A private parking space 310 metres away costs $2 an hour, making it suitable when a visit does not fit neatly into a short appointment. Both spaces are close enough to consider when the hospital car park is inconvenient.
For longer stays or shift work, Parksy lists four spaces 420 metres away with monthly pricing: an indoor lot at $251.89 a month, a lock-up garage at $266.50 a month, an undercover space with 24/7 access at $390 a month, and a covered indoor lot at $260 a month. The monthly options are better matched to repeated hospital visits or regular staff parking than paying an hourly rate for each shift.
Arrival and Emergency Department Access at Westmead
For emergency care, drive to the Emergency Department and use P5 beneath the new hospital building, entering through the main entry plaza and taking the ramp down (schn.health.nsw.gov.au). The Emergency Department page states that free parking is available (schn.health.nsw.gov.au), which is particularly useful when a child needs urgent assessment.
For planned visits, the hospital’s outpatient appointment guidance sits within its directions and transport information (schn.health.nsw.gov.au). The hospital is at 178 Hawkesbury Road, Westmead NSW 2145, near North Parramatta, so entering the address into navigation helps distinguish the site from other Westmead medical buildings.
