Fight the *******s to the end. I used to work for Oxford Brookes University and they decided to implement a £30 annual parking fee which would also apply to bikes. We had to fight tooth and nail to get bikes exempt, pointing out to the VC that because the charge was based on a 'green' commuter plan and because bikes are just about the greenest form of transport, it made a nonsense of charging us. Have you tried talking to Unison or whoever your trade union is? |
