The Laing O’Rourke car park was built by them for the duration of the hospital project, and after the hospital is finished, they are required to restore it back to original land. However, it is likely that we will request it is left as it is and becomes part of our overall complement of car parking. In the meantime, Laing O’Rourke require use of this car park. While it may seem under-used at present, it is needed for big meetings and supplier events as the project progresses, meaning the site is getting busier in terms of staff.
We can review with them periodically, but for now, it is not available for Health Board use.
