North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust increases patient parking charges at Peterborough City and Hinchingbrooke Hospitals




Bosses at a hospital trust are increasing patient parking charges.

The cost to park at Peterborough City Hospital will increase for patients and visitors from Monday next week (August 7).

The first 30 minutes of parking will remain free but there will be an increase of 20 pence to the current costs after that.

Free parking for Blue Badge holders, patients receiving cancer treatment and trust staff members will be retained.

Caroline Walker, chief executive officer at North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust, which runs the hospital, said: “Increasing parking charges is always a difficult decision but we have a duty to ensure our car parks are well maintained and this is at a cost, so we have to look ahead to cover that.

“This increase falls significantly below inflation as we have taken into consideration the current economic climate.

“We are also fortunate to have good working relationships with public transport links at both sites, so using the local bus services is an option too.”

The increase will also be in place at Hinchingbrooke Hospital.
