Travel to Harwich Hospital
Our address
Fryatt Hospital, 419 Main Road, Dovercourt, Harwich, CO12 4EX

Our multi-million-pound investment programme to build state-of-the-art facilities at Colchester and Ipswich hospitals for treatment and care will significantly improve healthcare for local people.
We know the number of car parking spaces on each hospital site has reduced because of these new buildings. We also know that because of the increased demand for our services, car parking has become extremely limited.
At peak times of the day, it is unlikely that you will find a parking space, so we would encourage you to find alternatives to parking in our car parks – if you can.
We have free 30 minute drop off zones where you can be dropped off and collected after your appointment. There are also very convenient park and ride services, serving both Colchester and Ipswich hospitals.
The buses run at regular times and using park and ride is less expensive than parking in our car parks.
