Parking Information
There are 10 designated spaces outside the Centenary Wing these are for patients attending for treatment only. You have to come into reception to collect a permit to place in your window to get free parking. If all 10 spaces are occupied, please park in one of the visitors car parks and get a parking concession slip from reception desk to place in your windscreen. If attending CSSTU, you can park in any of the car parks and then collect a permit from Centenary Wing or the staff will input your registration number onto a system. So the barrier will lift when you drive up to it. If attending a hospital outpatient appointment, you do not qualify for a parking permit.
