We don't envisage that there will be any major problems with traffic once the hospital opens, as there were two independent transport surveys carried out as part of the Business Case for the new hospital to determine its location.
This hospital will be very different to the Royal Gwent and Nevill Hall Hospital - one of the main differences is there will be no outpatient appointments carried out there, so fewer people will be coming and going to the hospital.
Most of our staff and visitors will access the new hospital from the A4042, and staff at the hospital will be working 24/7 across a range of different shift patterns, meaning there should be no major peaks in traffic.
