Parking at Royal Derby Hospital
The new multi-storey car park at Royal Derby Hospital is now open (as of Wednesday 5 November) - while changes to other car parks on the hospital site are now also in place.
The park and ride service will close on Friday 7 November 2025.
Parking on site at Royal Derby Hospital is no longer 'short stay only', with most car parks reverting back to the setup from before construction began on the multi-storey car park in October 2024. This means several of the car parks have no maximum stay limits (no time restriction on stays).
Those changes include:
- Car park 2 (up the ramp and outside the Kings Treatment Centre) have reverted back to standard spaces, having been reserved for Blue Badge holders only during construction.
- Car park 7 (accessed by driving around the hospital main ring road and situated past the new multi-storey car park) have reverted back to no maximum stay limits, including Blue Badge spaces.
- Car park 8 (to the left of the main entrance at the front of the hospital) have reverted back to a short stay car park (three-hour maximum stay) including Blue Badge spaces (there is no maximum stay limit for Blue Badge holders).
The car parks that will remain with their current setup are:
- Car park 3 (under the Kings Treatment Centre) will stay available for Blue Badge holders only (no maximum stay).
For a full breakdown of what parking provision is now available at Royal Derby Hospital, please see the table in the Parking Areas section below. Those with up-to-date Blue Badges will continue to get parking for free.
