Park and Ride seems to be successful in historic towns - principally in Oxford - where it offers easy access to many occasional visitors who want 'to see the town'. I doubt if this applies to Leamington. Experience shows that Park and Ride is likely to fail unless it receives financial support and other restrictive traffic regulations. If it does succeed it generates even more traffic in the surrounding road network, which would not be welcome.
