CHEAPSKATE commuters who park at Andover Hospital before catching trains will be thwarted when parking charges are introduced in January, says the chairman of the area's health trust.
Barbara North, chairman of the Winchester and Eastleigh Healthcare Trust (WEHT), told Andover residents at a patient and public involvement forum that the charges should put a stop to the rail commuters' cost cutting.
"There are people currently using the car park who do not go to the hospital or the health centre. Staff are coming in at 7am and seeing there are cars already parked there.
"We believe people are using our car park because it's close to the station and completely free," she said.
