Hillingdon Hospital in London
(Picture: PA)Three new hospitals planned for London face delays and a battle for cash due to the soaring cost of completing crisis-hit projects in the North and Midlands, the Standard has been told.
The Government has allocated an initial £3.7bn for 48 new hospitals by 2030, with the rebuild of Whipps Cross, the redevelopment of Hillingdon hospital and a new A&E hospital in Sutton in the first tranche of eight “pathfinder” projects.
