MTX, which previously delivered an A&E extension and additional office space at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, King’s Lynn, has won a further contract from Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn NHS Foundation Trust to build it a new endoscopy unit.
Preparatory groundwork is under way, with the new two-storey 1,958 ft2 building due to open to patients next Spring, subject to planning permission. MTX said: “The use Modern Methods of Construction will limit any disruption, and speed the project’s delivery, allowing the hospital to operate throughout the works taking place. Nichola Hunter, the Trust’s Associate director of Estates and Facilities, said: “We’re pleased to be working with MTX on a new state-of-the-art Endoscopy Unit. It is one of a number of important projects under way as we invest in modernising our hospital to further improve the experience of our patients, their families, and staff.”
David Hartley, MTX’s MD, added: “We’re thrilled to have been given the opportunity to work with the Trust on the next project at Queen Elizabeth Hospital. This continues a seven-year relationship with them, and I’m incredibly proud of the MTX team, as this is testament to their ongoing hard work and expertise. The new facility will enable all endoscopies to take place in a fit-for-purpose, hi-tech environment.”
