Parking permits are provided only to properties within the designated parking area.

Should you need to visit the hospital for an appointment, or for employment, please use on-site paid car parking options, or find an on-street park that is not within the designated permit zone.

If you are able to park in the driveway, or are visiting for a short period outside the hours 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday, you will not need to display a permit.

Just be sure not to overstay your time in the on-street park though, and make sure you adhere to any other parking restrictions, otherwise you may run the risk of receiving a parking expiation.

As the Lyell McEwin Hospital is situated amongst residential housing in Elizabeth Vale, a maximum of two annual permits are issued to each property within the designated permit area.

If you wish to use on-street parking between 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday, you will need to display a valid permit.

If you are a new tenant, and need to request a permit, please phone Customer Care on 8256 0333 or send an email to playford@playford.sa.gov.au. Be sure to speak with your land agent first, as the previous tenant may have returned the permit at the end of their lease.

If you wish to use on-street parking between 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday, you will need to display a valid permit in the windscreen of your vehicle.

Should a permit not be displayed, you may be issued a parking expiation.

If your vehicle has a GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass) of more than 4.5 tonne or is 7.5 m or more in length on a residential road, it is not allowed to be parked for periods greater than one hour – you may receive an expiation fee.

If your truck or bus weighs more than 3 tonnes, parking it on your property may be considered a development, and you may receive an expiation fee as it is not deemed necessary for domestic use.

To park such a vehicle on your property, you must lodge a development application to Council.

Council does not issue disabled persons parking permits. For information on disabled parking permits visit the Government of South Australia website or your local Service SA branch.
