Sussex Transport made an urgent Sameday delivery to the £6.5 millionGlebefields Neighbourhood Health Centre in Tipton, West Midlands, which is expected to be complete by mid 2011.
The new development will provide facilities for a number of clinics, from foot health to family planning, as well as dental services, a Citizen’s Advice Bureau, a pharmacy and an optician. Practice Nurses will have the facilities to provide specialised services for patients wanting to stop smoking, patients with diabetes and hypertension amongst many other services.
The massive expansion in iron and coal industries led to the population of Tipton expanding rapidly through the 19th century, going from 4,000 at the beginning of the century to 30,000 at the end.
Tipton was once known as theVenice of the Midlandsbecause it had so many canals, although some of the ‘minor’ canals in the town were filled-in during the 1970s. The canals today form a vital cycling, wildlife and leisure facility.
Using a dedicated Sameday courier vehicle, Sussex Transport, voted a favourite UK road haulage company 2010, was able to provide the required delivery service that the client required!
