From Monday 14 October 2024, there will be some changes to parking on-site at Royal Derby Hospital. This is to allow a new multi-storey car park to be built on the site of Car Park 6.
A number of essential hospital construction projects are being undertaken at Royal Derby Hospital during 2025 to improve the hospital building.
As a result of these projects, there may be some disruption to roads around the site.
Pedestrian access will remain fully open throughout construction, with diversions in place as and when necessary, and our helpful colleagues and volunteers across the site will be able to guide you.
This includes:
- Blue Light Road - The road that leads to the ambulance drop-off bays outside Royal Derby Hospital A&E is temporarily restricted to emergency access only. Ambulances will have free access and, in an emergency, vehicles can access the road to drop off outside A&E but there will be no '30 minute drop off' parking spaces available.
- Children's Outpatients Department road - This is temporarily closed to vehicles. The nearest drop off bays are outside Maternity and Gynaecology, and disabled parking is available in Car Parks 2 and 3, Maternity and Gynaecology, and Cancer & Specialist Services. You can also use the free, fully accessible Park and Ride service from Kingsway Boulevard which is suitable for wheelchair users and pushchairs and runs every 20 minutes.
If you have an appointment or scheduled visit to these areas affected, relevant colleagues in the department you are attending should communicate this with you directly.
