The project was awarded through the Procure22 framework and will see Graham deliver an 18-bay chemotherapy suite, a three-bed bay for day patients, two LINAC bunkers and a CT scanner suite.
The work will also see new consultation and examination rooms, clinical planning rooms and additional space for support staff.
Demolition of the Cumberland Infirmary’s eyesore tower block will be completed next month to clear the way.
Keith Hayes, Healthcare Director for Graham, said the project was currently in the design phase, with work expected to start in the summer and complete in January 2021.
Services delivered in the new facility will include radiotherapy, day-case chemotherapy, oncology late phase clinical trials and oncology outpatient clinics.

As part of the new facility modular dry interlocking blocks will be used in the construction of the LINAC bunkers to provide protection from radiation outside of the bunkers.
