Plan Your Visit: Parking & Construction Updates

This spring and summer, the hospital and the City of Orillia is completing several important construction and infrastructure improvement projects to enhance parking, safety, and overall site conditions. While this work is essential, it may temporarily affect parking availability and how you access the hospital.

At all times, access to the hospital will remain open. We recommend allowing extra time to find parking and navigate to your destination. If possible, consider arranging a ride to your appointment to help reduce parking demand during this period.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we make these improvements to better serve our community.
