This research aims to investigate public hospitals’ trip and parking characteristics based on the study conducted in Poland in September 2021 on the example of the Tri-City agglomeration. The main objective of the research was to build models of the relationship between the number of trips during peak transport hours and the number of beds. The second research element was the analysis of transport behavior in these areas. The research included measuring vehicle and pedestrian flow on the road network for four hospitals (2 in Gdansk and 2 in Gdynia) and analyzing data from two parking systems. Research data has shown that hospitals are large traffic generators and can negatively affect the road network’s capacity around them. This accounts for hundreds to over two thousand vehicle trips per hour generated by a single development. Traffic related to hospitals is structured with distinct peaks which partially overlap the peak hours of surrounding traffic. The results showed that trip generation rates by hospitals range from 1.25 to 2.9 per bed in the AM peak hour and 1.01 to 2.78 in the PM peak hour, and 54–68% of these trips are made by car, depending on the location of the hospital or the availability of public transport. An important element of the transport service for these facilities is the possibility of parking the vehicle in the immediate vicinity of the hospital. Parking characteristics strongly depend on parking users, with different distributions of parking times and arrival/departure times. The results may be used to predict and assess the traffic impact of existing and new developments, which is valuable knowledge for urban planners and transport engineers.
