FEES aside (Letters, April 11), I’d just like to add my experience of the shining example of classic modernist architecture that is the new car park at York Hospital. Being a wheelchair user, I looked out for the sign for the blue badge parking area. Driving round, I eventually spotted a laminated sign advising me to make a sharp right.

I did and looked out for an area appropriately marked. Not noticing one, I drove around twice more, only spotting the same sign again directing me to an apparently non-existent area.

My wife went to the office to inquire where it was, only to be advised, “Er, you can just park anywhere, luv”. On pointing out the bays were all standard width and that we could easily get boxed in, the chap said: “Oh yeah, I see what you mean. I’ll have to bring that to the attention of management.”

What foresight! I appreciate that the area in front of the hospital is eventually to be disabled-only parking, but surely at some point over the last umpteen years of this development this issue could and should have been anticipated?
