Safety work to prevent fires spreading at Coventry’s University Hospital won't be finished until late 2019, according to an article on the Coventry Telegraph website.
The breaches in walls of the UK hospital were discovered in 2016. It was estimated then that it would take two years of round-the-clock work to fix the issue.
A December 2017 report said that two years of work was needed to “fully remediate all shortcomings across the site.”
The news comes after a fire recently spread up the side of the hospital’s west wing building.
