Parking charges will be reintroduced at county hospitals.
Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust has confirmed that charges will return, starting next week.
Throughout the pandemic parking at Trust hospitals, including Worcestershire Royal, had been free.
However, on Monday, September 12, costs will come back into place.
The Trust said: "Having provided free parking throughout the Covid pandemic, we are reintroducing parking charges for patients & visitors as of Monday 12 September across all of our hospital sites.
"These charges will apply at Worcestershire Royal, Redditch’s Alexandra and Kidderminster Hospital.
"There will be no changes to the free parking for Blue Badge holders.
"Reduced car park fees are available for patients and close relatives in certain circumstances which may require regular or long term visits."
