Building works on the new Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) is now complete

The £19m investment for the CDC in Workington is now complete and will be operational by the end of July 2025.

This will be a brand new, state of the art build and will increase a whole range of diagnostic tests under one roof for patients across north Cumbria, including CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Plain Film and physiological measurement capacity.  

It is anticipated that the new facility will improve access to diagnostic services reducing wait times for diagnostic tests, leading to quicker diagnoses and ultimately start patients on treatment plans sooner leading to an improvement in overall outcomes.

Where to find the CDC 

The Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) is located in Workington town Centre, there is an onsite car park for around 30 visitors and staff as well as 4 disabled parking spaces at the front of the building.  

There are also 3 council owned car parks in close vicinity of the CDC as shown below.
