Drop-Off and Arrival Advice for the Parkville Campus
The level 2 temporary zone is designated for pick-up and drop-off (thermh.org.au), making it useful when a passenger needs to enter without walking from a separate street space. The hospital’s car park is intended for daily use, but spaces are limited (thermh.org.au), so arriving with extra time is practical during busy appointment periods.
The nearby Women’s paid car park is entered from Flemington Road and operates from 6am to 9pm, seven days per week (thewomens.org.au). Parking there is restricted to staff, patients and visitors of the Women’s (thewomens.org.au), so it is not a general substitute for the hospital’s own access arrangements.
