New traffic flow arrangements are now in place at St Luke’s Hospital for Carlow/Kilkenny.
Additional signs have been erected to assist with these new arrangements.
Patients and visitors to the hospital are advised that all traffic, with the exception of emergencies must use entrance 1, located opposite the main car, and must follow the one-way system.
The new arrangements have been introduced to make it easier and safer for patients and visitors to access the new hospital entrance.
Parking for people with disabilities is available either in front of the new hospital entrance, or within the care park.
The entrance to the new emergency department, which opened in May 2016, is also signposted as part of the new setup.
The main hospital entrance closes at 9 o’clock each evening, and anyone wishing to access the hospital after this time should do so through the emergency department entrance.
Drivers can also drive by the new entrance and drop off patients and visitors, and then proceed to the car park.
Additional signs have been erected to assist with these new arrangements.
