My son Murray and I have made good use of the new Park and Ride at Threemilstone, Truro visiting my wife Tamsin and the early arrival of our second son.
I was half-way through a three-day visit to the Isles of Scilly when Tamsin was taken into Treliske in an ambulance with blue lights and a police escort to boot.
I think the Park and Ride Scheme is fantastic. With my wife and child likely to be in hospital for a few days, parking charges at Treliske could easily exceed £50. During the day I can make use of the Park and Ride Scheme for just £1 per day. For people in West Cornwall this is the only affordable method of hospital visiting.
