original bridge in place, meaning it had to be removed. To prevent any disruption to patient care, the project team swiftly developed a solution: building a temporary link bridge between the Surgical Day Case Unit (SDC) and the Burns Unit. Additionally, a new corridor was created to maintain a secure passageway for staff to transport patients safely between key areas of the hospital. This quick thinking and adaptability ensured that essential services remained uninterrupted throughout the construction period.

without its challenges. The project has required extensive construction work to accommodate the new facility – and some of those obstacles have proven to be monumental.


Demolition of existing link bridge One of the biggest hurdles faced by the project team was the demolition of the existing link bridge between the theatres and the Emergency Department (ED). This bridge provided a crucial route for safely transferring patients between critical areas of the hospital. However, the new iMRI building couldn’t be constructed with the


Rebuilding the ambulance drop-off point Another significant challenge was the need to rebuild the area where ambulances traditionally drop off patients. The planned location of the new iMRI facility was right in the middle of this vital access point. Relocating such a critical area without disrupting emergency services required careful planning and coordination. To solve this issue, the team constructed a new tunnel and a relocated drop-off point to ensure that ambulance services could continue to operate seamlessly. These measures helped to minimise any potential impact on patient care and maintain smooth hospital operations. The logistics of delivering a project of this scale


within a busy hospital environment have been immense. Managing noise, vibrations, and dust from construction work, while ensuring patient care areas remained unaffected, was a top priority. The project team worked closely with hospital staff to schedule disruptive construction activities during quieter times, and implemented strict measures to control dust and noise. This careful coordination allowed the hospital to continue providing high-quality care to patients while work on the iMRI facility progressed.
