Building work is starting at Royal Bournemouth Hospital to create a new emergency, maternity and children’s centre. As part of the preparation work, their helipad for receiving patients via Dorset Air Ambulance will be closed until Friday 16 July.
If any helicopter landings are required while the helipad is closed they will take place on St Peter’s School Primary Phase school fields. This includes landings at night. Efforts are being made to keep the number of landings to a minimum, however we apologise for any disturbance caused to local residents.
