Starting tomorrow (Wednesday), parking regulations in the Hospital Zone near UHNBC will undergo changes as part of a plan to address on-street parking challenges.
This follows a review and decision made on July 8 by Council.
As part of the proposed changes, two-hour free parking will remain in areas immediately surrounding key medical facilities affected by construction of the new parkade, including UHNBC, the Northern Interior Health Unit, and others.
In addition, the City is introducing pay parking in the remaining streets within the Hospital Zone.
Using the HotSpot parking app, individuals will be able to pay $1 per hour or $7 for an entire day.
A detailed map illustrating the two-hour free parking areas and the new HotSpot pay parking zones is available for public viewing.
People who live in the hospital zone can apply for a residential parking permit. Permits purchased now will be valid through to December 2025.

Pay parking near the hospital comes into effect tomorrow, Oct. 16. The two-hour free zone remains in effect for the streets closest to the hospital for people attending appointments.
