4WD parking close to RPA hospital in Camperdown

Hi Heather,

Can't help you re parking, but is leaving the vehicle at a railway station on the outskirts of Sydney and catching a train in an option? With seniors (?) discount that would be pretty cheap.

Cheers,

Val

Hi Heather
I haven't parked there since mid 2008 when there were big changes going on at the front of the building and if that helped with parking, I don't know. I suggest you ring the switch and ask about parking - they'll probably put you through to someone who knows. Anyway, there is on-street parking in Missenden Road and in Carillon Avenue (head up Missenden Road with RPA on your left and turn left). Also, there is an underbuilding car park at that intesection, but I don't know about heights etc. Leave yourself plenty of time to find a space - it took me a quite a while to get one each time.
All the best

Heather its been a couple of years, but we parked in a open car park next to RPa, had to pay but no big deal. Even went up the back and got under some shady trees. I think it was next to a uni. Coming in from the west it is easy to find, straight down Parramatta road and turn right into Missenden.
The carpark was just before RPa, on the left on the Parramatta rd side.
Good luck Pete

I am puzzled

A Navara dual cab fits into any standard carpark, fit under any city height bar, even in those tight (and low) longterm parking multi story buildings. Even in basement parkin.

I am not sure if you have a problem at all?

Have you ever had a problem with height? Lenght is surely not a problem, I doubt if it is longer than any Commodore/Falcon?

Sydney University has metered parking - I'm not sure how much it is, but there should be plenty of it, since term doesn't start until the end of February.

Heather,
There is plenty of parking at the Hospital.

When you come up Missenden Rd (from Newtown), turn left (West) into Carillon Avenue and the entrance to the parking area is first on the right (at a set of lights).
There is both undercover and open air parking.

It is essentially behind the old Womens Hospital on Missenden Road.

There is also public parking (open air) further up Missenden Rd towards Parramatta Rd just past the Grose St intersection.

Cheers and good luck

thankyou to all who have replied to my post.

I appreciate your time and effort.

I see that you have had some good replies above.

There are plenty of options in the area.

There is 2 hour on street meter parking on the surrounding streets. Some areas are 4 hour meters (Missenden Road closer to Parramatta Road).

There is an open air parking area near the hospital (if travelling on Missenden Road towards Parramatta Road, turn right immediately after the McDonalds, 7 Elen and florist on the right, just after the hospital entrance). Expect to pay about $20 for 2 hrs.

The best place to park is in the open air car park opposite the main hospital, behind one of the other hospital buildings (access by turning left from Missenden Road, if travelling towards Parramatta Road, at the traffic lights at the main hospital entrance). Cost is $5 per 24hrs (insert coins to get the boom gate to open. Obviously this fills up pretty quickly but at that time of the morning there is a good chance that you will drop lucky. Consider getting there in good time to secure a spot or fins an alternative.
