Baystate Medical Announces Temporary Traffic Change

SPRINGFIELD — Access to Baystate Medical Center, including Baystate Children’s Hospital and the Medical Office Building, via the hospital’s Medical Center Drive entrance off Springfield Street will be temporarily closed to both vehicular and pedestrian traffic until later December.

The closure will not affect access to the hospital’s Emergency and Trauma Center, Wesson, and Chestnut Buildings, all of which remains the same.
The change in traffic pattern is necessary in order to provide space on Medical Center Drive, between the Daly Building main entrance and Springfield Street, for a large crane required for the installation of a new air handling unit, part of the hospital’s continuing efforts to upgrade its facilities.
