Road to Progress: Updates on the Temporary Construction Access Road

As we continue to prepare the Hardwick Manor development site for our new hospital, a new temporary access road is being created. 

The temporary access road will connect the old hospital site on Hardwick Lane to the Hardwick Manor development site. The new road is an extension to an existing road near the education centre between Car Park E and Rowan House. 

This will not be our final access road to the new hospital. However, the temporary access road does mean that we can minimise disruption to our neighbours and bring construction vehicles and contractors through our own site until our construction compound is ready, which will be when we begin building our new hospital.  This is anticipated to be in the latter half of the decade.  

The Future System Deputy Estates Lead, Hannah Sharland, talks you through the process in the video below:
