Road Disruption around Leighton Hospital

Redevelopment of Leighton Hospital is hoped to start in 2027, and as a preliminary step, some preparatory infrastructure work is to start soon, particularly on some high-voltage electrical cabling. This will inevitably cause disruption on the roads around the hospital.

The specific roads scheduled to be affected are

• Brian Palin Way – closed 6 June to 3 July
• Tottys Hall Way – two-way traffic lights from 30 June to 25 July
• Tottys Hall Way – single-file traffic roundabout from 21 July to 27 July
• Bob Brown Way – closure from Tottys Lane Road roundabout to Flowers Lane roundabout from 28 July to 17 August.
• Flowers Lane – closed from Bob Brown Way roundabout to Bradfield Road roundabout from 18 August to 26 August.
• Flowers Lane – closed from Middlewich Road roundabout to Leighton Hospital's staff car park from 8 September to 31 October.
