## Parking at South Academic Block, Laundry Road

South Academic Block is part of Southampton General Hospital in Shirley Warren, near St James. The entrance is served by the hospital’s visitor parking arrangements, but the car park by the South Academic Block is for visitors and Blue Badge holders only (AccessAble). Parking is not free for all users (AccessAble), so it is not a straightforward option for university staff or students without an eligible hospital visit.

The main orange car park is intended for patients and their visitors, with Blue Badge parking on the lower level (UHS). Blue Badge parking is available across the University of Southampton’s campuses, while other visitor parking is limited and must be arranged in advance with a host (southampton.ac.uk). The hospital’s official parking information directs drivers to its parking pages rather than publishing a general SAB visitor rate in the available guidance.

## Other Car Parks Near the Hospital Campus

The nearby Parksy choices provide alternatives to the hospital’s own visitor parking. A driveway space in Coxford is 90 yd away and costs £75 a month, making it the practical choice for a regular student or staff commute. A space on Hollybrook Close, Southampton SO16, is 0.2 mi away at £1 an hour, which suits a shorter visit to the campus.

There is also parking near Spire Southampton Hospital in Shirley, 0.2 mi away at £4 a day. A space at Southampton General Hospital is 0.3 mi away at £6.25 an hour, while spaces near Genesis Care Southampton and on Dale Valley Road are each 0.4 mi away, priced at £4 an hour and £4.50 an hour respectively.

## Busy Periods Around South Academic Block

Parking pressure is likely to be greatest when hospital visitors and university users arrive together, because the main orange car park is reserved for patients and their visitors (UHS). Visitor parking at the University of Southampton’s General Hospital campus is limited and must be arranged in advance with a host (southampton.ac.uk), so planned visits need more preparation than an ordinary short stop.

The hospital guidance also identifies the South Academic Block as a location beside additional motorcycle parking bays, with further bays by the West Wing (UHS). The published guidance does not provide term dates, open-day dates, event schedules or surrounding-street restriction details for SAB, so drivers should treat hospital visitor demand and university activity as the main practical sources of pressure.

## Parksy Spaces for Students, Staff and Visitors

For a recurring timetable, the Coxford driveway is 90 yd from SAB and costs £75 a month, giving students or staff a monthly option close to the campus. For an occasional class, appointment or meeting, the Hollybrook Close space is 0.2 mi away at £1 an hour. The Spire Southampton Hospital space is also 0.2 mi away and costs £4 a day, which fits a full-day visit better than an hourly booking.

Visitors needing a shorter stop can choose the Southampton General Hospital space, 0.3 mi away at £6.25 an hour. The Genesis Care Southampton space is 0.4 mi away at £4 an hour, and the Dale Valley Road space is 0.4 mi away at £4.50 an hour. The closer monthly and 0.2 mi spaces are the most convenient for regular campus users, while the daily and hourly choices suit hospital visitors and occasional appointments.

## Walking to South Academic Block From Rail and St James

Millbrook railway station is the nearest station to SAB, at 1.4 mi away and a 29-minute walk.

The campus is 0.8 mi from St James centre. SAB’s street address is Laundry Road, in Shirley Warren near St James, so drivers and pedestrians should use the Laundry Road address when planning the final approach rather than describing the destination as being in St James itself.
