Why have we introduced Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR)?

 

Have you ever turned up for a Medical Appointment to find there are no spaces at Stennack Surgery? Have you seen people park at Stennack Surgery during our opening hours and walk away from the Surgery site into the town?

 

We have listened to your feedback and the best way to reduce the number of people parking incorrectly to visit St Ives rather than the Stennack Surgery, during our opening hours, is to introduce Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR). This new ANPR system will maximise the number of spaces available to our Patients during our opening hours. Parking is still free for our Patients during our opening hours to use the Stennack Surgery site for Medical reasons, and Pay & Display is still available when the surgery is closed for anyone visiting St Ives.

 

Please just follow the steps below:

Patients - What do I need to do?

During our Surgery opening hours - to ensure you don't get a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) Fine, when you arrive to use Medical Services at the Surgery please register your vehicle number plate using the white computers available upon entrance to the building. This will allow you to park fine free whilst using the Stennack Surgery site for the duration of your appointment or enquiry. Any Patient who has parked their vehicle and then walks away and leaves the Stennack Surgery site to visit other areas of St Ives will be issued with a fine, as parking is only available to patients for the duration of their medical appointment or enquiry - Monday-Friday 8am-8pm.

If you are parking for more than 15 minutes when using Boots Pharmacy or coming into any part of the Stennack Surgery site for a medical enquiry please also register your vehicle number plate using the white computer in the main surgery waiting room.

If you are visiting the site to use the following Medical Services: Midwifery, Podiatry, Echocardiogram or Ear Micro-suction services please register your vehicle number plate using the white computer located closest to your appointment room.
