QuestionView source ↗

I refer to complaints received by patients experiencing
difficulty in securing parking at Peel Health Campus, primarily because
commuters will often park at the hospital all day once the Mandurah Train
Station car park is full (which is usually full around 7am) and ask: (a) are there any plans to introduce a time limit for visitors on parking at the Peel Health Campus to discourage commuters using this as an all-day car park; (b) are there any plans to increase the number of parking bays at the Peel Health Campus; and (c) does the Government have any plans to change Peel Health Campus from free parking to fee parking, if so please outline?

(b) Additional parking areas for staff have been made available at the rear of the site.
(c) No.
