We have a pay and display Multi Storey Car Park at the Royal Victoria Infirmary which can be easily accessed from Queen Victoria Road and which is available for use by anybody who wishes to use its facilities including patients, visitors and staff. 

There are a number of short term (20 minutes only) "drop off" spaces at Victoria Wing at the front of Peacock Hall which again can be accessed from Queen Victoria Road and there is "drop off" access only outside of Leazes Wing which can be accessed from Richardson Road.  

There are also a number of Newcastle City Council managed pay and display parking spaces along Queen Victoria Road and Richardson Road.

Disabled parking

Disabled parking is available, 'free of charge' for blue badge holders, and there are a number of designated 'disabled' spaces located around the hospital car parks.

Parkforce – Penalty Notice Scheme

Please note that the Trust operates the above system in managing its estate and car parks. If you park inappropriately you may be issued with a penalty notice and fined.

To avoid being issued with a penalty notice please observe the signs placed around the site and the following ‘good practice’ guide when parking on site.

  • Do not park on double yellow lines or hatched areas
  • Only park in a designated space
  • Park in an appropriate space eg not one that is allocated for other vehicles
  • Do not cause an obstruction to traffic or access to a building by parking inappropriately
  • Display your ‘blue badge’ when using disabled parking on site

 

The Newcastle Hospitals has a ‘zero’ tolerance policy regarding abuse of staff.  Please do not verbally or physically abuse our staff.
