Parking rates at the Peterborough Regional Health Centre will increase beginning May 1.
On Friday, the hospital announced a number of parking rate changes, noting rates have not increased since 2016 despite rising maintenance costs over the eight-year period.
“PRHC has always worked hard to keep our parking rates low, at a cost that’s fair and aligns with provincial direction, while at the same time helping us to offset rising costs and support patient care across the hospital,” the hospital stated.
The hospital will also be adding the option to purchase non-consecutive day pass packages (HPASS) for five, 10 and 30 days. The passes will be available at the hospital’s parking office.
