Permit Holders
Persons using disabled parking spaces will be required to display their pass as issued by the Local Authority, which needs to be valid and up-to-date.
Car Park 3 has been specifically made for the use of disabled people, having 64 allocated spaces
In total, there are 123 disabled spaces in various locations. Some of those spaces are outside of the car parks, these being located at Entrance 24, Entrance 21 and Children’s Hospital.
Disabled parking spaces outside of the car parks will be time limited to a maximum stay of 3 hours.
What if I can't operate the barriers?
For those blue badge holders who have problems using the barriers, special dispensation will be offered to park outside of the barriers. Prior to their appointment or visit, patients and visitors would need to ring the Car Parking Office who would then advise them where to park.
To avoid misuse of the spaces and ensure that spaces are available for those who genuinely need them, patients and visitors will be asked to provide information as to why they cannot operate the barriers and will also be asked to provide their name, car registration number and disability badge number which will be kept on record in the car parking office.
Parking is free of charge for all Blue Badge holders.
Blue Badge holders must take a ticket to enter the car park and display the Blue Badge in clear view for staff to see.
When leaving the car park Blue Badge holders will need to drive up to the exit barrier and press the help button explaining that they are a Blue Badgeholder.
Staff will ask the driver to hold the Blue Badge up to the screen, upon viewing the barrier will be raised for the visitor to leave free of charge.
