We are pleased to announce that the plans for our new multi-storey car park and secondary access road have been approved by Bradford Council marking the start of the first major works for our new hospital.

The new car park will improve parking for patients, visitors and staff, while supporting the future hospital development.

The design reflects feedback from local people, including larger parking bays, bicycle spaces, electric vehicle charging points, and a laser cut visual design the reflects the surrounding nature of the hospital.

We've had some questions raised about the land we are building the new hospital on.

Our site sits on a hill, well above the river and the Environment Agency higher risk flood zones. The flood risk for the site has been assessed and is well below the threshold of 1:100 year risk, meaning only an extreme and exceptionally rare combination of circumstances would pose a significant risk.

We've also built two new hospital buildings using modern foundations successfully on this site in recent years.
