There's not enough bike parking at Kingston Hospital. When I visited, there were 17 bicycles in the 10-capacity bike parking outside the main entrance, and the nearby parking was full too.
The carparking is often full, but it would be good to convert 2-3 car parking spaces into bicycle parking, since this increases the number of visitors, patients and staff who can access the hospital in the same space.

Apparently a route round NH Hospital was proposed once many years. There are many opportunities for the hospital to improve cycle (and foot) access.

The UHCW NHS Trust has applied for planning permission for a new access roads and multistorey car parks, under a plan drawn up by leading global engineering firm Arup.
Please ask them to go back to the drawing board and come up with something better.
The planning application details are here:
http://planning.coventry.gov.uk/portal/servlets/ApplicationSearchServlet?PKID=744613
Please state that you OBJECT to the current proposals as they don't give any consideration to encouraging more cycling (or walking).
The trust are open to discussion via twitter (@NHSUHCW), but the council need to be asked to bring this matter to the committee (currently it is just classed as deferred, which means officers decide themselves).
