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 />
