THE main public car park at the James Paget University Hospital will be closed from this evening for resurfacing work over the weekend.

The main car park at the front of the hospital, Car Park A, will be closed form early evening today (Friday, March 9) until early morning on Monday, March 12.

The essential resurfacing work has been scheduled for the quietest period of the week for the public car parks. Staff will be on hand to direct traffic to alternative parking areas over the weekend. Car Park B will be open as normal.

The car park will then re-open for normal use from Monday but will close again on the early evening of Friday, 16 March for the second and final phase of work over that weekend. Car park A will then open in full to the public on Monday, March 19 after all the resurfacing work is completed.

A spokesman for the hospital said: 'We apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused and will work to keep any disruption to a minimum.'
