Many people have contacted me regarding the proposed changes to parking at Watford General and in particular proposed plans to charge disabled people for parking. I have been in regular contact with the Hospital Chiefs about this and I am pleased that they have taken the decision to halt this particular charge whilst a consultation is carried out.
I would encourage everybody concerned to complete the survey about the changes, and you can do so by clicking here
These proposed charges will have a significant impact on many people and will mean that many people will struggle to visit the Hospital as much as they may need. I will continue to press the Hospital to find a way to help those who will struggle to pay and I will keep constituents informed on any progress on this matter.
