Arriving for Appointments and Emergency Care
Use the Du Cane Road side for the hospital car park, where the entrance is identified as being off Du Cane Road (accessable.co.uk). Pay-and-display machines are signposted around the parking area (imperial.nhs.uk), so drivers can deal with payment after finding a bay rather than searching for a separate payment office.
The hospital’s published parking information describes the provision as short-term parking (imperial.ac.uk), so a full-day appointment or shift is better matched to a weekly Parksy space where practical. The hospital’s accessible parking area has six designated bays (accessable.co.uk), which helps visitors needing step-free proximity plan around the main surface car park.

The council also states that those car parks are free on Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays (lbhf.gov.uk).

Use a marked parking facility rather than treating nearby residential roads as hospital parking, because the council’s published car-park tariff applies to its car parks and does not establish permission to park on surrounding streets (lbhf.gov.uk).
