ROYAL Berkshire Hospital visitors are being warned of new parking charges coming into action next week.
Visitors are being warned that, from Monday, June 19, Automatic Parking Charge Notices (PCN) will be issued for non-payment.
Hospital car park users are reminded that you can pay using the pay machines, APCOA Connect App or Late Pay on APCOA Connect app.
The late pay must be paid within 24 hours of exiting the car park.

There are certain parking charge exemptions with a free parking permit on a 'one per patient' basis.
This 'one per patient' exemption covers partners of women in labour; close relatives to patients in ICU, Buscot Ward, paediatric wards; visitors to patients who are gravely ill; patients attending for chemotherapy, radiotherapy and dialysis.
