I have read with interest the forthcoming arrangement for NHS staff to have a minibus service running from Brooklands park, and a claim of saving hundreds of daily journeys to the hospital.

Given the numerous reported issues of parking costs in and around the town, surely its time for Worthing to have a park-and-ride scheme for all, with part of Brooklands as one to the east of the town and part of the ‘cabbage patch’ adjacent to Goring station as another in the west.
