There is a massive shortage of spaces at this hospital, even more so now that emergency hospital has opened and staff have to travel between sites. The trusts have sold land for housing that staff were in desperate need of for parking.
Staff are fined when they spend an unreasonable amount of time trying to find a spot to park and end up having to dump the car on a grass verge or on some double yellow lines so that they can get in to work and carry out their job.
Nothing is being done despite complaints, we are told to park in a car park 10/15 minutes walk away? but only at certain times of the day, otherwise the car park will be shut.
This problem has been going on far too long.
