So much time wasted searching for parking spaces, not to mention missed/late arrival for appointments!

To alleviate stress and arrive at appointments on time.

A hospital visit can be a very stressful occasion. Remove the additional stress finding and paying for parking.

Why would you profit from your own workers

The JR serves the whole county not just the City. For people living in less well connected villages around the Shire they need to use cars and thus need somewhere they can park easily. I should think hundreds of appointments are late or lost to patients who simply cannot get in to the car park due to lack of spaces and queues arising from this.

For those with disabilities or attending in an emergency the current provision is dangerous. Builders were in .ore than 20 spaces last week but nothing is being done. It's a shameful situation.

This is a hospital - a place of hopes, suffering and tragedies. This is a place that people need to get to quickly, easily without high costs or hassle. For heaven's sake, where is this council's compassion??? This parking fee policy is sheer cruelty. All hospital staff should have free parking - again, their hard work and medical dedication is not something to be unethically monetised. Stupid, stupid councils...how can you not see what we electorate can see?

More parking plus disabled parking is needed at both hospitals. If you are unwell or live in a remote area then public transport isn't an option

So true for both the JR and Churchill. Trying to find a space when you're ill or taking family to an appointment is really stressful. We need more spaces for everyone.

Hospital access needs multiple patient and visitor interfaces.

I think in general hospitals should have enough parking for everyone and still have spaces left. especially with the size and reputation of JR, it also needs more blue parking, when ever I've attended I struggle to park in blue badge bay but I guess the future is to walk/cycle or bus in to save the planet from so called climate change

The Jr has grown exponentially with far more patients and outpatient attending. The available parking needs to match this extension and with space at a minimum up is the only way

To get an adequate infrastructure to support the hospital and its users. Also helping the neighbourhood with reduced traffic

Parking is difficult at both the JR and the Churchill. When people are unwell or supporting someone to an appointment, they need reliable access.

More parking is desperately needed at all the hospitals but especially the JR and Churchill
