🚧 Temporary Road Closure on our Hospital Site - Monday 26 October

We're carrying out essential infrastructure works on our hospital site on Monday, 26 October which will require a temporary closure of part of the site road near our Visitors' Entrance.

What you need to know:

âś… All main visitor car parks will remain open and accessible.
âś… The Visitors' Entrance will still be accessible for pick-up and drop-off, but vehicles will need to approach via the alternative route around the East and North sides of our site.
âś… All usual Pedestrian routes will remain open.

Please follow temporary directional signage and allow a little extra time when travelling to appointments or ward visits today.

Thank you for your understanding while we complete these important works.

Our services remain under pressure today and we continue to prioritise care for those who need it most.

If your condition is less serious then you may need to wait longer to be seen by our teams.

Could you be seen quicker and more appropriately elsewhere?

Your community pharmacy, NHS111, GP or a UTC may be able to help - and you may be home enjoying your weekend much sooner.
