Meter parking is available on Swanston Street, Grattan Street and Cardigan Street, with time limits varying from one to two hours (dhsv.org.au). Those limits suit a short appointment better than a lengthy treatment visit. Accessible parking is located at the Lynch Street Laneway entry at 305 Cardigan Street, and the bays are open weekdays between 6:30am and 6:00pm (rdhm.org.au). The hospital is at 714-736 Swanston Street, Carlton VIC 3053, so visitors using the accessible bays should approach via the Cardigan Street address rather than relying on the main Swanston Street frontage. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Within 110 Metres of the Hospital Parksy lists a secure covered private space a few steps away at 60 metres for $3 an hour, plus a secure 24/7 private space in Carlton at the same 60-metre distance for $170 a month. The monthly option is suited to repeated appointments, staff and shift workers who need regular access rather than a single short stay. A secure garage at 265 Faraday Street is 90 metres away and costs $6 an hour. Two private spaces in Carlton are 110 metres away, priced at $4 an hour and $3 an hour, while a secure 24/7 private space at the same distance costs $100 a month. The hourly spaces work for treatment visits, and the monthly listings are the practical choices for recurring hospital shifts. Show map of Carlton ## Arriving for Appointments and Urgent Dental Care The hospital occupies 714-736 Swanston Street, Carlton VIC 3053 (rdhm.org.au). Meter parking is available on Swanston Street, Grattan Street and Cardigan Street (dhsv.org.au), while the accessible parking entrance is the Lynch Street Laneway entry at 305 Cardigan Street (rdhm.org.au). Drivers bringing someone to an appointment should use the hospital frontage for a quick drop-off, then move the vehicle to a legal paid space. For urgent care, keep the drop-off separate from parking: bring the patient to the hospital entrance first, then park. The closest commercial car park is on 265 Faraday Street (Ace Parking). The hospital's accessible bays operate on weekdays from 6:30am to 6:00pm (rdhm.org.au), so visitors arriving outside those hours should plan around the signed street controls or a private space. ## Reaching the Hospital From Flinders Street Station Flinders Street is the nearest station listed for the hospital, 2.1 kilometres away, which is a 27-minute walk. Tram and bus services also serve the Swanston Street and Carlton area, making public transport useful for patients who do not need a car for mobility or equipment. The hospital address is 714-736 Swanston Street, Carlton VIC 3053, and the Flinders Street walking route takes 27 minutes over 2.1 kilometres.
