Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

I went last Thursday - the big main entrance is at 'level 1' so you wont need to look for lift or stairs - I found it well signposted - and very busy - reminded me of Manchestert airport :D

You will find it no problem:)

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

Go in at the main entrance (which yes does resemble Manchester Airport lol). Go towards the shop which is straight ahead of you. At the shop turn left (you can't turn right!) and the opthalmology dept is the 2nd on your right.

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

Know where you mean now but didn't realise that was A&E.

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

The portacabin isn't A&E, it's the Urgent Care centre..:)

Thanks for that Lettie knew there was a name on the side of it but couldn't for the life of me remember what it was:confused:

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

Well have definetly seen the traffic jams today. It took us about forty five minutes to get home. It took us thirty minutes to get off the car park!!!

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

What times of day was that Bernie?
I have to go again this week

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

We were coming out at four thirty, it was horrendous. A lot must have been staff because visiting time was long gone and there couldn't possibly have been that many out patients leaving at the same time.

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

There are a fair amount of staff who leave between 4pm and 5pm. I tend to leave from the entrance across from KFC but it can take ages to get out due to the weight of traffic coming up Haslingden Rd from the town centre to access the M65. It's not just hospital traffic which causes the chaos. It is actually quicker to get to Accy by going down Shadsworth Rd at that time of night rather than using the motorway. I wish that the roads had been planned better but this is England, we can't get nowt right..:D

Re: Traffic jams at Royal hospital
 

We did come down Shadworth Road, once we got off the car park and out of the traffic heading for the motorway we had a clear run.
