📣 | Important: temporary parking changes at Torbay Hospital this weekend

We have some essential infrastructure works taking place on site this weekend, including crane operations on Friday evening (set-up) and Saturday morning.

This means there will be some temporary changes to parking:
• parking around the Physiotherapy area will be unavailable from Friday evening
• disabled parking spaces in Car Park A will be temporarily unavailable

If you’re visiting us during this time, please allow a little extra time for parking. Signage will be in place to direct you to alternative disabled parking provision.

Thank you for your understanding while these important works are carried out.
