Car Parking

Story from nhs.uk

"Car Parking"

About: Lincoln County Hospital

A shambles, not even spaces considering its the main hospital in the county. Expecting a heavly pregnant woman walk from the main carpark (if you can find a space) all they way over to the maternity ward (with a tiny carpark) in high temperatures is extremely poor. Is there any plans to increase the parking at the hospital?

Leaving enough time to get to appointment then spending up to about 10 minutes trying your odds to find a space then having to walk across site making you late for the appointment.

Desperately needs reviewing.

Thank you for your comments and question with regards to your parking issues and please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused when you visited Lincoln County Hospital.

Whilst the Trust is aware of the difficulties of parking within the hospital sites, unfortunately there are only a limited number of spaces on the land available. Whilst the situation is constantly being reviewed, there are currently no plans or funding for any car park expansion.

The Trust recommends, if possible, to use alternative ways of getting to the hospital or perhaps use the 20 minute drop off spaces, close to all entrances, if this is more convenient.

Kind regards

Sarah
