Location & Parking

New Parking Areas from Monday 21 July 2025

Parking at ARO is free with validation. From Monday 21 July there are new designated ARO parking spaces for patients to use.

To ensure your parking is free, ARO must validate your vehicle — please have your licence plate number ready to enter into the iPad kiosk located at our reception.

Parking Options

1. ARO Patient Car Park – via Gate 5 (Almorah Road)

Enter through Gate 5 (Specialist Centre entrance) on Almorah Road. Drive straight ahead and up the ramp to the second level. At the top of the ramp, you will find designated ARO patient parking. Enter the building by going past Awanui Labs and through the double glass doors, and then turn left. ARO is directly ahead of you along the corridor.

2. Allevia Hospital Car Park – via Gate 1 (98 Mountain Road)

If ARO patient parks are full, enter through Gate 1 (Allevia Hospital Main Entrance) on Mountain Road. Park in any undesignated space on Level 1. From the carpark, use the Level 1 entry into the hospital. Turn right immediately after entering the first set of doors. ARO is directly ahead of you at the top of the small flight of stairs.

3. Street Parking (No Validation Required)

Free 120-minute street parking is available on Mountain Road, Gilgit Road, and Almorah Road. No validation is required for street parking.

Important parking notes

  • Do not enter your licence plate into any parking machines — this will incur a charge we cannot cancel.
  • Allow up to 30 minutes to find parking before your appointment. Parking is very limited across the Allevia Hospital campus, especially between 10 am and 2 pm, Tuesday to Thursday.
  • ARO designated spaces are reserved for patients, but availability can vary.
