About the project

MKUH is the new Radiotherapy Centre to adjoin the existing hospital’s Cancer Centre, located in Milton Keynes.

The project is a new Linear Accelerator Bunker that will house two Linac machines. There will be a new reception and waiting area, a CT suite, consulting rooms and staff spaces on the first floor. There will also be soft landscaping with relaxing scenery adjoining the existing Cancer Centre. To prevent radiation leakage from the Linac machines, the concrete for the bunker walls varies from 1.7m to 2.6m thick. By using low-carbon concrete, we have saved an equivalent CO2 emission from heating over 160 homes a year.
