Work on enhancing the general entrance access around Stamford & Rutland Hospital is due to commence this week.
Council approved work will include introducing dropped kerbs and tactile paving on the Uffington Road entrance – January 5-9 and on the entrance to the main hospital site and the adjacent BUPA off Ryall Road January 26-30.
Traffic management will be in place with traffic lights to manage and control the vehicles using both Ryall Road and Uffington Road.
While some of the adjacent footpaths will be closed and pedestrian access amended for this time, the work will not impact hospital services, patients or parking.
Signage will be installed to guide pedestrians, along with safety barriers and fencing.
Work will be carried out between 9pm and 6am to keep disruption to a minimum.
