## Medical Center Station Car Park Arrangements

Medical Center Station has no commuter parking lot, so drivers should not plan on finding a station-operated garage or surface lot at 9000 Rockville Pike. The station is used almost exclusively by employees and visitors to the adjacent medical facilities because there is little retail in the area and no commuter parking lot (Wikipedia).

Walter Reed National Military Medical Center says public parking options are available in downtown Bethesda, with staff able to park there and ride Metro to the station (walterreed.tricare.mil). The medical center has two patient parking garages adjacent to the campus, while staff parking is limited to permit holders and may have a waitlist (navymwrbethesda.com).

## Parksy Parking Near the Station

Parksy lists several paid spaces around Bethesda, all 1.0 mi from the station. The options include a 24/7 parking garage at $4 an hour, a parking lot at $8 an hour, and a garage at $8 an hour. These spaces suit drivers who want to leave a car outside the medical campus and continue the final mile by Metro, bus, or on foot.

Other nearby choices include a garage at 3 Bethesda Metro Center for $7 an hour, a 24/7-access garage for $7 an hour, and secure covered parking at 4500 E West Hwy for $6 an hour. The covered space suits drivers prioritizing shelter, while the two $7 garages are useful for commuters who prefer garage parking close to Bethesda’s downtown transit connections.

## Commuter Parking for Medical Center Station Trips

Walter Reed National Military Medical Center identifies downtown Bethesda as the public parking area for people who want to continue to Medical Center Station by Metro (walterreed.tricare.mil).

Staff parking at the medical center is permit only and may have a waitlist (navymwrbethesda.com). Patient parking is provided in two garages adjacent to the medical center (navymwrbethesda.com). The station serves employees and visitors to the medical facilities almost exclusively, according to Wikipedia, so a pre-booked Parksy space can help drivers avoid relying on staff or patient facilities for a regular commute.

## Street Parking and Enforcement Around the Station

Montgomery County lists Bethesda public parking facilities with payment required Monday through Saturday from 7 am to 10 pm, at a rate of $1.50 per hour (montgomerycountymd.gov). Drivers using accessible parking in the county facility are also required to pay the hourly rate (montgomerycountymd.gov).

The county information applies to Bethesda parking facilities rather than establishing free station parking. Drivers heading to the station should therefore use a permitted public facility or reserved private space instead of treating medical-center staff areas as general street parking.

## Bethesda Connections and Alternatives to the Station

Bethesda station is the nearest listed station, 1.0 mi away, or a 20-minute walk from Medical Center Station. Downtown Bethesda is also the public parking alternative identified for people who want to ride Metro to the station (walterreed.tricare.mil). The Parksy spaces 1.0 mi from the station place drivers near that downtown parking area, making them suitable for a park-and-ride-style trip.

The station is on the Metro network, and Walter Reed National Military Medical Center specifically recommends parking downtown Bethesda and riding Metro to Medical Center Station (walterreed.tricare.mil). A driver can therefore avoid searching for a nonexistent station commuter lot by parking in Bethesda and completing the journey on rail, while visitors to the medical campus can use the adjacent patient garages described by Navy MWR Bethesda (navymwrbethesda.com).
