After several months in situ, the mobile operating theatre is set to be uninstalled and removed from the Gilbert Bain Hospital site.
Over 500 operations have been undertaken in the mobile theatre since January 2022.
In order to safety remove the mobile unit, some parking areas within a section of the east of the hospital car park will be restricted from the evening of Sunday 9 October until the afternoon on Wednesday 12 October.
The parking spaces nearest to the theatre unit will be closed off along with the area outside the outpatient building.
A parking restriction will also be in force on Cairnfield Road from the evening of Tuesday 11 October.
The board would urge all staff, visitors and patients to observe the areas coned off and to park responsibly. This is to ensure the safety of the teams removing the unit from the site and also to reduce the risk of any vehicles being damaged during these works.
Once the unit leaves the site on Wednesday, the majority of the east car park will reopen with the exception of four spaces currently occupied by the link corridor that was built between the hospital and the theatre. This will be removed over the following week.
