A DEDICATED coronavirus pandemic centre will not be built in the city after plans were rejected by councillors over fears it would add to parking woes. Worcester City Council s planning committee rejected a plan by Barbourne Medical Centre in Worcester to build a purpose-built clinic on its surgery car park to treat patients with, or suspected of having, coronavirus. Ward councillor Neil Laurenson said the plan was “completely unrealistic” and the site was “unsuitable” and he had not seen such strong objection to a planning application from residents since plans emerged to relocated Worcester City FC to Perdiswell. He thought the building would be temporary and he said there was a “realistic chance” the pandemic would be over before the building was even built during a meeting of the council s planning committee last Thursday (December 17).
