This is the latest healthcare scheme for Kier as it continues to provide vital infrastructure to support the nation's health.
Set to open at the end of next year, the 6,800m² facility, which will be named the Emily Siddon Building, is situated near the centre of Huddersfield and will offer diagnostic services as well as a place for local businesses to thrive.

The ground floor will include a Community Diagnostic Centre which will be run in partnership with Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust and will provide thousands of additional diagnostic tests, including MRI and CT scans, for the local community. Other floors will offer specialist clinical teaching facilities and space for local entrepreneurs or start-up organisations as part of the university's health and wellbeing innovation centre. The centre is being supported by the West Yorkshire Mayor and Combined Authority through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
Sustainably delivering infrastructure which is vital to the UK is Kier’s purpose and it will once again be working to this, and realising the ambitions of the University of Huddersfield, by constructing a building that aims to meet BREEAM ‘Excellent’ standards and secure WELL Platinum certification.
