L&D Hospital Mani Car Park Closes From 13 July - Bigger Car Park To Be Built

Parking for visitors and patients at the Luton and Dunstable University Hospital will get a welcome boost by the end of the year, as work gets underway on a new four-level car park on the footprint of the existing Lewsey Road car park.
The new car park will double the current provision for patients and visitors, and also provide more accessible parking as well as bicycle parking for patients, visitors and staff.










The new design will also improve the flow of cars, and reduce queuing and congestion on Lewsey Road.
The existing main visitor and patient car park (on Lewsey Road, opposite the main entrance to the hospital), will be closing on Monday 13 July.
Alternative parking will be available on site, in Farringdon Fields, off Calnwood Road. The Trust is reallocating staff spaces for the period.

New boundaries are being proposed for council wards in Central Bedfordshire.

This stage of the consultation closes on 7 September 2020 The Local Government Boundary Commission wants to hear what residents and local organisations think about the proposals. A 10-week consultation on the proposals will run until 7 September 2020.

The proposals include that the old boundaries of Tithe Farm, Parkside and Houghton Hall are discontinued in terms of areas that ward CBC councillors cover.

Instead, Houghton Regis would be carved up into new wards, broadly similar to now, of Houghton Regis East, and Houghton Regis West. And part of the existing Dunstable Northfields ward would be moved into Houghton Regis West.

Proposed ward boundaries:
