Sir – It was pleasing to read your article on Oxford’s new cancer hospital.

We visited it on Monday, March 30, and were impressed with the building and its design features.

However, the planners appear to have forgotten that it should cater for patients as well as staff since there were no parking places for patients available after 10am.

The public places which were previously available to cancer patients had been allocated to staff. If patients are not able to park they have little option but to miss appointment times.
