Laing O’Rourke has started work on a £250m cancer centre after it was given the green light in February.

The five-storey centre will be delivered at the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton and is expected to treat around 60,000 patients a year.

Once complete, the facility will provide modern cancer treatments, advanced technology, and contemporary clinical practice. It is expected to open in 2029.

The centre has been designed in partnership with employees of University Hospitals Sussex NHS Trust. It is adjacent to the Louisa Martindale Building, which the contractor completed in 2013.
