New one-way system

A new one-way system has been put in place at RSH to help protect drivers from the large construction vehicles that are on site as part of the Hospitals Transformation Programme It is vital that all colleagues adhere to the one-way system for their own safety and the safety of others

We understand that sometimes change can take a while to become embedded, so please be vigilant when driving on site and follow the road signs instead of just going the way you would ‘normally’ go

Your safety and the safety of our patients and construction partners is paramount

The one-way system will be in place for at least three years so please stay alert, read the signs and drive responsibly

Please continue to use the Racecourse Lane exit between 4-6 30pm, or turn left off Evolution Road to help ease congestion

If you have a question about the building works or new road layout, please email sath improvinghospitals@nhs net
