History

The hospital, which replaced the Royal Halifax Infirmary, was procured under a Private Finance Initiative contract in 1998. The new hospital was built by Bovis Lend Lease. [1] The cost of building the hospital, originally budgeted at £34.8 million in 1994, was £103 million by 2001. [2] It started providing services to patients in April 2001 and was officially opened by Princess Anne on 15 March 2004. [3] Facilities management services are provided by ISS. [4]

Proposals to close the Accident and Emergency Department in February 2016 provoked a demonstration of 5,000 people in Huddersfield and a petition signed by 60,000 people against it. [5]
