Residential Parking Controls Around Springfield Drive
The hospital is in the London Borough of Wandsworth, near Wandsworth Common, where residential streets sit alongside the Springfield Drive site. The hospital’s published parking information sets out the charge bands and the two-hour no-return rule, so visitors should use the hospital car parks rather than treating nearby residential bays as an alternative.
Street parking can be controlled by local signs, marked bays and permit requirements. A patient visit can last longer than a short stop, so a marked hospital bay or a booked off-street space is the practical choice for avoiding a restriction that does not cover the full appointment.
