BETSI Cadwaladr has warned motorists of the possible disruption to traffic flow amid construction work at the Glan Clwyd Hospital site.

To facilitate construction work on the new Maggie's Cancer Support Centre at Glan Clwyd Hospital, there will be some alterations to traffic flow on site.

From Thursday, July 11 there may be disruption for vehicles entering Glan Clwyd Hospital via the main road off the roundabout, with a lane closure in effect.

A spokesperson for Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board said: "These works are necessary to make adaptations to road markings and the entrances to the car park before building construction starts on the centre. Priority will be given to emergency ambulances at all times.

"Our apologies for any inconvenience this will cause."

The new facility will provide free support for people with cancer across the United Kingdom, as well as their family and friends, in its warm and welcoming centres. 

Expert staff, who help people to live well with cancer, provide a breathing space away from clinical environments. Glan Clwyd was chosen for the new Maggie’s because it is also the site of the North Wales Cancer Treatment Centre. 

The centre plans were first announced in November 2021 with planning permission granted in October 2023.

It has been designed, commissioned and funded by the Steve Morgan Foundation and is planned to open in 2025.

Maggie's was founded in 1993 by Maggie Keswick Jencks and her husband Charles Jencks after she was told that her breast cancer had returned.
