## Parking at University Hospital of North Durham

The County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust operates the hospital parking arrangements. Visitor charges at University Hospital of North Durham are £2.50 for 0–2 hours, £3 for 2–3 hours and £4 for 3–24 hours (traumanorth.org.uk). The trust says its parking is moving to a paperless system, with barriers automatically recognising vehicles when entering the car park (cddft.nhs.uk).

The main car park is at the hospital’s main entrance and is well signposted (nornet.org.uk). The hospital address is 1 Albert Street, City of Durham, Durham, DH1 4RN. The trust publishes car-parking charge exemptions for eligible patients and visitors (cddft.nhs.uk), making the exemption arrangements relevant for qualifying appointments and treatment visits.

## Arriving for Appointments and the Emergency Department

Use the main entrance car park for the hospital’s principal access, as the car park is situated at the main entrance and is well signposted (nornet.org.uk). A private pay-and-display car park is also located just at the hospital (nornet.org.uk), which gives drivers another nearby parking area when the principal car park is busy.

Parking pressure has been significant enough for County Durham and Darlington NHS Trust to apologise, while 70 additional spaces were recently added (bbc.co.uk). Staff have also received additional parking at County Hall to ease pressure on patient and visitor access (dailymotion.com). These changes make patient access the priority during busy arrival periods, particularly when several appointments overlap.

## Street Parking and Residential Streets Near 1 Albert Street

The hospital sits at 1 Albert Street in the City of Durham, so nearby residential streets are not a dependable substitute for the hospital’s designated parking. The trust’s visitor arrangements centre on its hospital car park and a nearby private pay-and-display car park (nornet.org.uk), rather than presenting surrounding residential kerb space as visitor parking.

Drivers visiting the hospital should use the signed hospital or private pay-and-display facilities instead of treating nearby streets as an extended-stay option. This is especially important for appointments that may run beyond the intended visit, because residential spaces can be controlled by local signs, permits or other restrictions.

## Parksy Parking Spaces Close to the Hospital

For a low-cost full-day booking, Parksy lists a covered parking space in Durham, 155 yd away, at £4 a day. A secure garage space in Durham is 0.2 mi away at £5 a day, offering a practical choice for a longer appointment or a hospital shift. Two further spaces are listed at £36.99 a day and £27 a day, both 0.2 mi away.

For shorter visits, a Durham lot is 301 yd away at £2.75 an hour, while secure parking at Durham Marriott Hotel Royal County is 0.3 mi away at £1.55 an hour. The covered space and garage are the clearest fits for full-day stays or shift workers, while the hourly listings suit visits where the return time is easier to estimate.

## Walking and Public Transport to the Hospital

Durham railway station is the nearest station, at 317 yd from the hospital and a 4 min walk. The short walk makes rail practical for staff, patients and visitors who would otherwise need to [find parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) near 1 Albert Street.

The hospital is also served by local bus services, with the University Hospital of North Durham listed on the County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust’s travel, transport and parking information (cddft.nhs.uk). Durham’s railway station provides the clearest named public-transport connection in the available location information, with the station-to-hospital walk taking 4 min.
