New car park for Frankston Hospital A THREE level multi-storey car park will be built at Frankston hospital. The extra 750 spaces will ease the burden of parking. The works will be funded by a $16 million loan from the state government, repayable over 25 years. Peninsula Health CEO Sue Williams said the extra space was “excellent news for our patients, staff and visitors”. “The ongoing expansion and redevelopment of the hospital has increased the burden on car parking spaces,” she said.
“The existing multi-deck car park, which opened in 2013, provides 570 spaces and these are often full by 8.30am. “The new car park will better service the increasing number of visitors to Frankston hospital.” The car park, on the site of the Dundas St car park, will have four lifts, CCTV coverage of all vehicles and pedestrian entry and exit points. Tender applications close on 21 July with construction expected to start in November.

SEVEN bathing boxes at the south end of Mt Martha beach have been broken into, although police say the motive was more likely to have been “partying” by young intruders, not theft. Sergeant John Coburn, of Mornington Peninsula CIU, said doors to the boxes at the beachend of Prescott St were forced, from 17-20 June, causing damage that the owners will have to pay for. “It is holiday time and they would have been used for shelter and partying by the young people who would have been up all night,” he said.
Robbery arrest DETECTIVES have arrested a Mornington man after two 15-year-old boys were robbed at knifepoint in Tyabb, 2am, Monday 13 June. Detective Senior Constable Peter Butland, of Somerville CIU, said the boys were walking along Frankston-Flinders Rd when a car stopped and an 18-year-old man demanded one of their hoodies, wallet and phone. The victim’s credit card was later used to buy items. Two days later police saw the car – a stolen Nissan Pulsar – in Carrum Downs and gave chase but abandoned it after a short distance. A warrant was executed on the man’s house in Main St, Friday, where police allege they recovered some of the boy’s property.
Cyclist hit SUN glare is being blamed for a collision between a car and a bike in Mornington, Wednesday morning. A cyclist riding north on Nepean Highway about 8am was struck from behind by a car near the Beleura Hill Rd intersection. Sergeant Chris Stock, of Mornington police, said the impact sent the cyclist, 40, onto the bonnet of the car, smashing the windscreen. He was taken to Frankston hospital “shaken and bruised” by the incident, but released later that day. The man driving the car was not injured. “The driver told police that he couldn’t see the cyclist due to sun glare on the road,” Sergeant Stock said. Somerville Highway Patrol police are investigating the collision. Sergeant Stock urges riders to have their red tail lights on, which he said cuts through sun glare. Anyone who saw the incident is urged to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at crimestoppersvic.com.au
