Highclere Medical Centre
Portsmouth
Link was appointed by the Solent NHS trust to support the construction of the North Harbour Medical Centre. Our role included delivering a detailed Section 278 (S278) design and securing technical approval for the egress, along with amendments to the existing footway and bus stop.
As part of the project, we also designed and obtained approval for modifications to Northern Road, London Road, and St George’s Road to improve the northbound right-turn facility. This involved creating a ghost right-turn junction and widening the carriageway.
