Car parking changes<br />

Our<br />

car parks are all too often<br />

congested, impacting on the experience<br />

of our patients and visitors. To tackle<br />

this, we have reallocated staff parking<br />

permits.<br />

We will soon introduce (Spring <strong>2016</strong>)<br />

financial penalties for staff, visitors and<br />

patients for inappropriate parking. Such<br />

parking creates problems for emergency<br />

vehicles and other patient transport trying to<br />

access our sites.<br />

This includes penalties for parking outside of<br />

designated car parks, on grassy areas and on<br />

yellow/red lines and those who park without<br />

displaying a valid staff permit or blue badge.<br />

The fine will be £50 reduced to £25 if paid<br />

within 14 days, in line with arrangements<br />

for inappropriate parking in the city centre.<br />

More details to follow via our website and<br />

local media.<br />

Stronger<br />

enforcement<br />

coming soon<br />
