The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust has written to neighbours of the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital to warn them of overnight works taking place at the site.
Work to replace a manhole cover and the installation of low voltage service cables will be taking place near Mytton Oak House from 7pm to 7am on November 5 and 6.
In the letter, assistant director and technical lead for the Hospitals Transformation Team, Adam Ellis Morgan said that while contractors will aim to keep noise to a minimum, they "recognise some noise is inevitable".
He added: "Due to the nature of the works, we need to undertake the works overnight when there are less people using the site. We would like to apologise for any disruption."
Work began on the construction of a new four-storey building at Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (RSH) earlier this year.
The work is part of a major multi-million pound 'Future Fit' hospitals transformation process provided at RSH and Princess Royal Hospital in Telford.
The Future Fit plans finally received national approval in May this year after years of delays.
