PARKING charges at Derriford Hospital have been revised, the Plymouth Hospitals NHS Trust last week announced.

Stays of up to 15 minutes will continue to be free, but a new £1.20 fee will be charged for between 15 minutes and one hour in the hospital's car parks. The one to two hour fee is being increased to £2.40, two to three hour fees have been increased by 30p to £3.60 and a stay of three to four hours increases from £4.40 to £4.80.

The charge for between four and five hours has been reduced by 60p to £6, while the fee for five to six hours rises from £6.60 to £7.20. A stay of more than six hours rises from £8 to £12.
