Tyre trouble in Walsgrave on Sowe?

Much of the tyre trouble here is found at the end of a long day. Visitors return to their car at University Hospital Coventry to a tyre that has gone soft, and people working at Cross Point Business Park find the same after a shift. Homes off Hinckley Road and Woodway Lane get their share too, usually a slow leak that started with debris on the A46. Nobody needs to move the car; the fitter brings the tyre and kit to it.

What we do in Walsgrave on Sowe
Tyre work in Walsgrave on Sowe.
Hospital and business park jobs are mostly punctures and worn tyres noticed at the end of a shift. The punctured tyre is removed and checked inside; if the hole lies in the zone BS AU 159 treats as repairable, it is sealed with a patch and plug, whereas damage in the shoulder or sidewall means replacing it. Replacements are matched to the size already on the car. Blowouts on the A46 end with a new tyre and an inspection of the rim, and a missing locking key holds nothing up.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Walsgrave on Sowe
Drives, bays and car parks.
At home, the drive. At the hospital, a bay in a public visitor pay car park, away from the ambulance routes and the main entrance, with the parking paid as normal. At work, the forecourt of the unit you work from at Cross Point Business Park. Warwickshire Shopping Park and the large supermarket car parks nearby suit a car that can be driven there. Hinckley Road and Brinklow Road are not places to work at the kerb, and the A46 is never an option.
Callers come from the streets around Hinckley Road and Coventry Road, from Clifford Park and the roads towards Wyken, and from the units at Cross Point Business Park and Walsgrave Triangle Business Park. Postcodes are mostly CV2, with CV3 in parts. The hospital sits on Clifford Bridge Road, and its public pay car parks can work for a tyre job, but staff-only and blue-badge bays are not ours to use. The A46 is out entirely: it is a dual carriageway with no place to stop, and a tyre that fails on it needs to be nursed to the next junction and off onto a side road. Warwickshire Shopping Park, off the same bypass, offers open parking for anyone whose car still rolls.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Walsgrave on Sowe.
Walsgrave's night calls are dominated by the hospital. Somebody leaving late finds a flat in a visitor car park, or a driver gets off the A46 at the next junction with a tyre going. There is always someone to answer, and the total is worked out with you before the fitter drives up.

Walsgrave on Sowe FAQs
Questions from Walsgrave on Sowe.
Is a University Hospital Coventry visitor car park somewhere you can work?
Generally, in one of the public pay car parks, with the car in an ordinary bay well away from the emergency approach. Staff-only and blue-badge bays are not somewhere we can work. Say which hospital car park and row the car is in, and keep the ticket valid.
My tyre failed on the A46 by Walsgrave on Sowe. What should I do?
Carry on at a crawl to the next junction and leave the bypass, then stop on a side road off Hinckley Road or Clifford Bridge Road. If the car will not move, get out, stand back behind any barrier and ring 999 if you are in danger, or National Highways on 0300 123 5000.
Can you come to Cross Point Business Park during the working day?
The units there have parking in front of them, which is ideal for a tyre change while you work. Give the unit name, the tyre size from the sidewall and your registration, and the quote covering tyre and visit is given there and then.
What happens to the old tyre after a fitting at home in Walsgrave on Sowe?
It goes back in the van. Once the new tyre is fitted, balanced on the van's own machine and the nuts torqued, the worn casing is taken away, so nothing is left lying on the drive for you to dispose of.
