Parking at Selly Oak Hospital and the Queen Elizabeth Site
It says vehicles should use designated public car parks, with yellow and red lines marking restrictions on access roads (uhb.nhs.uk). This is particularly important around the connected hospital routes, where stopping in an access area can obstruct clinical traffic.
Accessible bays are available within the hospital parking arrangements, while the Arkell Way address places the hospital entrance in Selly Oak rather than at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital campus itself.
Arriving for Appointments, Drop-Offs and Urgent Care
Arkell Way is the hospital address, so it is the practical approach for a patient drop-off at the building. The NHS guidance specifically identifies yellow and red lines on access roads as parking restrictions (uhb.nhs.uk).
For urgent treatment, follow hospital signs for the emergency department rather than waiting on the approach road. The available guidance for the Queen Elizabeth site says designated public car parks should be used and access roads must remain clear (uhb.nhs.uk).

Three priced Parksy spaces are within 184 yd of the hospital. The closest is a secure parking space in Selly Oak, 81 yd away, at £4.50 an hour. A space at The Oaklands Centre is 123 yd away at £1 an hour, while parking at Selly Oak Health Centre is 184 yd away at £0.80 an hour.
