Parking

Patient Drop-off & Pick-up Areas
For your convenience, wheelchair-accessible drop-off and pick-up areas are located at the Main Entrance on Goyeau Street, and at the Ouellette Avenue Entrance. Please note that there are time limits for these areas to help prevent traffic congestion, enforced by both the Hospital and the City of Windsor. Please read and obey parking signs in these areas.

Paid Parking
Paid parking applies to all Hospital parking facilities, including designated handicapped spaces.

Rates
Parking rates vary depending on location:

Parking Deck: The Parking Deck, located on the southwest corner of Erie St. East and Goyeau Street, uses a ‘pay on foot’ payment system. Entrances are located on the west side of the structure off of Erie St. East, and on the southeast corner of the structure off of Goyeau Street. Users receive a bar code ticket upon entry; keep this ticket with you and make payment at one of the automated pay stations located in the elevator lobby on the ground and 3rd floor levels. Exit from the structure requires the paid ticket to be inserted into the exit gate. Payment machines accept coins, bills and credit cards (Visa or MasterCard).

Rates: $2.75 for the first hour or portion thereof (a 20 minute no-charge grace period is included in the first hour); $1.75for each additional hour to a maximum of $7 per 24-hour period. Daily ($7), weekly ($30) and 28-day ($90) passes offer unlimited exit and entry. Passes are available at the pay stations on the ground and 3rd floor levels.

Surface Lots: The Hospital maintains several surface parking lots in the immediate vicinity (see map below). All surface lots use a ‘pay & display’ payment system. Make payment at any machine located in the lot, take the receipt and place it on the vehicle dash so as to be easily seen by enforcement officers. These machines accept coins or credit cards (Visa or MasterCard) only.

Rates: Short-term parking (Lot F & Emergency)
$4 for the first hour or portion thereof; $3 each additional hour.
Other lots (E & G)
$2.75 for the first hour or portion thereof, $1.75 each additional hour; $7 paid at one time provides receipt valid until midnight on date of purchase.
Lots C & D are staff only parking.

Long-term parking: Recognizing that a number of users do so due to family medical issues beyond their control, the Hospital provides discounted long-term parking tokens for use in Lots E & G. Tokens are valid for 14 consecutive hours from time of insertion but no later than midnight on date of use, and are available at the Cashier inside the Hospital, on the 1st floor.

Rates: 10 tokens for $30

All parking is on a first-come, first-served basis. Should Hospital lots be full or otherwise unavailable, there are a number of privately-owned surface lots near the Hospital that are open to the public.

Change Machines
Machines to make change from bills are located in the Hospital cafeteria in the basement and in the Goyeau Lobby beside Admitting. Change is also available at the Cashier on the 1st floor during normal business hours.

Enforcement
The City of Windsor enforces paid parking on Hospital property on a 24 hours per day, 7 days per week basis. Provincial offence notices (parking tickets) will be issued to vehicles not properly displaying paid parking receipts, parked improperly or in handicapped spaces. The Hospital also enforces by towing, under City of Windsor by-laws, to deal with repeat offenders or vehicles parked improperly.
