Cars
We will of course continue to offer car parking spaces at the surgery. We apologise for the restricted number of spaces available at present due to the extension work being carried out. When the extension is completed, this will increase the total number of spaces (including a total of 4 disabled spaces).
Whilst we realise a majority of patients currently choose to visit the surgery by car, we wish to encourage those that can come by alternative means to do so, so that those who have no other option than to use a car can use the car park. We have tried to ease car parking at the surgery by relocating our staff car parking off site to increase availability of spaces for patients.
Please do not park in the drop off bay outside the surgery – this is reserved for loading and emergency vehicles.
Please do not park on the fire station access road outside of the surgery, this must be kept clear at all times.
Cycle/Mobility Scooters
We have recently replaced cycle racks near the front of the surgery with new covered facilities for up to 8 cycles. The new cycle rack is located between West Elloe Pharmacy and the surgery building. We will be constructing a pathway directly to the cycle area soon including dropped kerb access.
The space where the old cycle racks are located will be allocated for mobility scooter parking shortly. It is recommended that mobility scooter users use the pedestrian path to access the entrance to the medical centre parking area, as the raised ramp on the entrance to the medical centre is not designed for mobility scooters.
A cycle route runs down one side of West Elloe Avenue, and along to Spalding Town Centre via the Castle Sports Centre. We are working with the relevant local authorities to try and improve cycle pathways in the local vicinity.
Motorcycle
We will be constructing a hard standing near to the new covered cycle shelter shortly to accommodate motorcycles, and this will be accessible using dropped kerb access and a pathway.
