An extension to the Lincoln Community Diagnostic Centre has been completed by MTX Contracts Ltd using Modern Methods of Construction (MMC).
Delivered in just 21 weeks for Lincolnshire Community and Hospitals NHS Group, the extension adds nine consultation rooms, a treatment room, and a plaster room to the existing facility, helping to support faster access to planned care services and reduce waiting times across the region.
A new linkway connects the extension to the existing CDC – also delivered by MTX – which was opened in 2024.
MTX Contracts MD David Hartley, said: “The completion of this extension in just 21 weeks demonstrates the speed and quality that can be achieved through our intelligent, hybrid approach to Modern Methods of Construction. We are proud to have once again collaborated with Lincolnshire Community and Hospitals NHS Group to create additional clinical capacity while supporting faster access to care for patients across Lincolnshire.”
Professor Karen Dunderdale, chief executive of Lincolnshire Community and Hospitals NHS Group, said: “The completion of the £4m building project to extend our facilities at Lincoln CDC is great news for the residents of Lincolnshire.
“The additional clinical space will help us to see more patients in the community as part of their ongoing planned outpatient care, and, by moving some clinics out of Lincoln County Hospital, we’ve also been able to support improvements to urgent and emergency care services.
“The freed-up space means our Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) service within the hospital has been able to grow, supporting more people to access emergency care quickly and without the need for a hospital admission.”
