A HOSPITAL is temporarily changing access routes to its car park as a major redevelopment continues.

Portable buildings that will become a new clinical administration unit at the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton are being delivered today and on June 25.

The new building will be based next to the hospital’s North Service Road.

The road, which is the normal route to the hospital’s multi-storey car park, will be shut for two weeks at its junction with Bristol Gate.

Traffic for the car park will instead be directed to enter the site from Whitehawk Hill Road on the west side of the hospital.

To help manage traffic for the two week period, Whitehawk Hill Road will be made one way from north to south, where it passes the hospital site.

Vehicles for the car park will be directed to approach from the north and leave to the south.

In addition all the parking spaces next to the hospital on both Whitehawk Hill Road and Upper Abbey Road will be suspended.

Extra staff will be on hand throughout the fortnight to help with traffic management and direct drivers around the site.

The work is part of a £485 million redevelopment.
