NHS staff ordered to pay thousands in parking fines racked up at a hospital NHS staff have been left “broken” and face losing their homes after a court ordered them to pay thousands in parking fines racked up at a Cardiff hospital.
A judge has ruled that the employees, including nurses, doctors and admin staff, must pay the charges dating back to April 2016 after losing a legal fight with Indigo, the private operator that manages the car park at the University Hospital of Wales.
One nurse reportedly owes £150,000 after the court ruled that £128 must be paid for each unpaid ticket, plus £26,000 in court fees.
The dispute began last year when Indigo and the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board agreed new measures for parking on the hospital site.
The hospital has 6,000 staff but the car park has only 1,800 spaces, so many said they were left with no choice but to park in spots reserved for visitors. The Daily Telegraph
