HOW naive of anyone having an appointment at Royal Bolton Hospital, to think that they can find a parking space, either legally or otherwise, by being on site only an hour prior to the appointment.

I find the best method to go early morning -- preferably before 5am, it usually works.

Parking is utterly inadequate, and has been since the Infirmary was demolished (sad to say).

Maybe if the Chief Executive and Trust members were to have their free passes withdrawn for a month or two, then some action would be taken -- possibly the erection of a much-needed 10-storey, two basement car park. Another job for PFI?
