55% (29) of the submissions were generally positive about the clearway trial, 30% (16) were generally negative, and the remaining 15% (8) were either balanced or did not provide enough information for this assessment to be made.

When asked what works well about the clearway trial, the most common feedback was:

  • Provision of parking near the hospital (24)
  • It provides safer parking for hospital staff (10)

When asked what doesn’t work well about the clearway trial, the most common feedback was:

  • Cars overstay the clearway hours (12)
  • The break in the traffic lane for parking is dangerous, e.g. causing cars to swiftly change lanes with little notice (12)
