Changed parking zones

We have a range of 2, 3 and 4 hour parking zones within close proximity to Geelong Hospital to assist patients and their families who require extended visits to the hospital.

Outpatients

Please be aware that scheduled appointments can often take longer than expected so park in spots that give you a reasonable amount of time to allow for delays.

Medical emergencies

In the event of an emergency we understand that there's not always time to find a car park that gives you a reasonable amount of time.

If you receive a parking ticket while at Geelong Hospital or St John of God Hospital please complete a Statutory Declaration providing details and evidence of your medical emergency and submit an appeal via the online appeal webpage. This will be used as part of the appeal process.

Why do we need timed parking?

Central Geelong has 5,400 on-street car spaces.

We have a mix of timed parks including 1P, 2P, 3P and 4P (as well as 1/4P and 1/2P near 'quick visit' shops such as milk bars and drycleaners).

If we didn't have time limits, cars would clog up spaces for longer making it very difficult for others to find a park.
