Patients have been warned of disruption as building work starts at Southampton General Hospital.
Heavy-duty trucks will be driving in and out of Southampton General Hospital on Thursday.
University Hospital Southampton Trust, which runs the hospital, said this is likely to cause delays on Coxford Road.
The work starts at 8am and it is not known how long it will take.

A spokesperson for the trust said: “Throughout the day, heavy-duty trucks will be delivering concrete to support the construction of our new energy centre.
“These deliveries may impact the flow of traffic on Coxford Road, so we recommend allowing extra time for your journey or using alternative routes if possible.
“There will be support available on the day to assist with signposting and traffic diversions.
“Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.”
