Oxon Park and Ride bus service to Shrewsbury hospital - brilliant!

Dear Blogger

PARK & RIDE TO SHREWSBURY HOSPITAL

We have had to visit Shrewsbury hospital a couple of times in the last two weeks, as you do when you are as ancient as we are.

Two weeks ago I dropped Roger off at the Treatment Centre and just drove straight out, with all the building going on I could not see there was a cat in hell`s chance of finding a parking place. So I turned left, up to Roman Road over the roundabout and down past the big pub and turned left and then right and parked outside one of the houses - probably halfway to Frankwell roundabout!

Yesterday we caught the hospital bus from Oxon Park and Ride, paid £2 for the return journey for 2 to the hospital. We were dropped outside the Treatment Centre and later returned to a waiting bus and back to Oxon.

What a dream, please make use of this fairly new facility, running every 10 minutes and shared between NHS staff and patients.
