I use a park and ride at an airport quite frequently and the service is shockingly bad.
Well, the park and ride has been up and running 2 months from memory, it's to prove it can be effective, can be a long term thing. Hours need to be addressed to cater for shifts certainly.

It's all well and good talking about adequate provision for parking, reality is nowhere has adequate provision for parking. Aim is to reduce traffic (ha!). Given the new leader of Cardiff council is a keen cyclist, helping car drivers won't be top of the list. Equally, demand on UHW in terms of staff and patients, visitors keeps on rising. There's only a finite amount of land there.
