Stafford Hospital. 15th-26th Feb. Park and Ride.

The hospital is under going a major car park expansion project at the moment (long over-due). As of next week most of the car park is out of use, notices were given to all users today to let us know that two 'park and ride' schemes will operate from The Polish Club on Riverway and Weston Road High School between the hours of 8.00-18.00, pick ups every twenty minutes. They strongly advise the use of this, or walk or cycle. Just a heads up to y'all.

There's also quite a few buses to the DGH to chose from:
- 74 Cannock to Stafford hospital, hourly, via Lichfield Road
- 75 Cannock to Stafford hospital, hourly, via Wolverhampton Road
- 1 Baswich - Town - Hospital - Coton Fields, half-hourly via Lichfield Road
- 9 Highfields - University, half-hourly and idiotically only calling at the hospital in one direction!!

Would be just as easy to bus all the way in some cases than park at Polish Club (not a huge car park really) or Weston Road. Every 20 mins is a bit rubbish for P&R as well. Buses also run earlier/later than the P&R will.

Now at risk of turning this into a traffic rant thread.... Building a bigger car park at the hospital is only going to make traffic worse on Weston Road in the long run...

Once again, common sense on this thread which makes it even more shocking that the council can't see blatantly obviously whats going on.....

Stafford really pees me off, the sooner I get out of here the better (and saying that annoys me slightly because the place does have its good points) :(
