## Ottawa Civic Hospital Car Parks and Short-Stay Rates

The hospital’s parking is operated by The Ottawa Hospital, with pay-by-licence-plate meters introduced across all three campuses (preciseparklink.com). Short-term parking costs $4.50 for 15 to 30 minutes, $8.50 for 30 minutes to 1 hour, and $13 for 1 to 1.5 hours (ottawahospital.on.ca). The daily maximum is $16 until 11:59 p.m. (ottawahospital.on.ca).

Parking meters accept $1 for 5 minutes (ottawahospital.on.ca), so a short appointment and a full-day visit use different payment calculations. P2 Parking Lot is at 45 Ruskin Street (waze.com). P-7 is across from the Emergency entrance, off Carling Avenue.

Visitors needing step-free access should use marked accessible bays near the relevant entrance and display the required permit. Patient concessions, parking hours, and the number of accessible bays are not included in the published parking details.

## Parksy Spaces Near the Hospital in Kitchissippi

For a full-day appointment, a secure commercial garage in Ottawa is 920 m from the hospital and costs $17 a day. Its daily pricing suits visitors who expect to stay for several hours, as well as workers needing a place for a full shift.

A parking space at 108 Bayswater Avenue is 1.3 km away at $2.70 an hour, while a space on Rochester Street is 1.6 km away at $8.49 an hour.

Two parking lots are 1.7 km away and each costs $2.25 an hour. The hourly spaces are useful when the visit length is uncertain, while the commercial garage offers a clearer option for a long hospital stay.

## Arriving for Appointments and Emergency Care

Drivers coming for urgent treatment can use P-7, which is across from the Emergency entrance and reached from Carling Avenue. This location is particularly practical when the passenger needs to get inside quickly, because it avoids searching through the wider surrounding streets.

The hospital’s published short-term tariff separates stays into 15-to-30-minute, 30-minute-to-one-hour, and one-to-one-and-a-half-hour bands (ottawahospital.on.ca). A driver collecting a patient should plan around the short-stay bands rather than assuming a brief stop is free.

Parking demand is also shaped by the hospital’s three-campus pay-by-licence-plate rollout, launched on October 3 (preciseparklink.com). The available site guidance identifies the main and Emergency entrances as locations with nearby surface parking (kitchissippi.com).

## Carling Avenue and Civic Hospital Street Parking Rules

The published parking information identifies paid meters, with $1 buying 5 minutes (ottawahospital.on.ca), so a space beside the hospital may require payment even for a short visit.

P-7 is off Carling Avenue, across from the Emergency entrance, while P2 Parking Lot is at 45 Ruskin Street (waze.com). Those named access points are more dependable for hospital parking than residential streets around the Kitchissippi site.

Local signs take priority over general expectations about residential parking, and a visitor should avoid leaving a car in a permit-only or time-limited space while attending an appointment.
