Parking lot

The North visitor parking lot (our main parking lot) is located on the North side of Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital, on the west side of Trench Street, directly across from D-Wing, near the Emergency Department. Our South visitor parking lot is located on the south side of the hospital, on the south and east side of A-Wing. Both visitor parking lots are gated.

Parking Areas

Short-term parking

Short-term parking is available at the south end of the hospital, close to the Main entrance of A-Wing. Parking here is limited and features a "Pay and Display" ticket system with a one-hour maximum time limit. Passes cannot be used in this area.

Drop-off area

A Drop-off area is located in front of the Emergency Department entrance. *Please note that there is a 10-minute maximum time limit when picking-up and dropping off guests. The drop-off area is monitored regularly by Hospital Security and vehicles must never be left unattended.

Accessible parking spaces

Accessible parking spaces are located within both gated visitor parking lots, as well as in our short-term parking area and within our Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) parking lot at the rear of A-wing. All vehicles utilizing these spots must clearly display a valid Ministry of Transportation accessible parking permit at all times. Cars parked in the accessible parking spaces within our non-gated lots must also display a valid "Pay and Display" proof of payment on the vehicle dash.

Please be advised

Please be advised that parking at Alexander Mackenzie High School (300 Major Mackenzie Dr. W. Richmond Hill, ON L4C 3S3) and at the York-Med Medical Centre (250 Harding Blvd W, Richmond Hill, ON L4C 9M7) is not allowed for hospital patients and visitors.

How can I pay?

You have two options when paying for parking inside the gated North and South visitor parking lots:

When entering the lot, at the gate, select the "print ticket" option; keep your ticket with you and pay for your parking at the exit by credit card or at one of our Pay Stations prior to exiting the parking lot; payment can be made with debit (in parking office only) or cash/credit card at the paystaion; when exiting the lot, at the gate, insert the paid ticket you received from the Pay Station.
