Construction is underway on the $105 million Moree Hospital Redevelopment, which will provide enhanced healthcare facilities for the local community.
NSW Government spokesperson for the Northern Tablelands Peter Primrose joined Moree Hospital staff and community members to turn the first sod to mark the start of main works construction.
The $105 million redevelopment will offer contemporary health facilities to support the best models of care to meet the health needs of the growing community now and well into the future.
It will deliver a new purpose-built acute services building on the existing hospital campus to house the emergency department, operating theatres, medical imaging, birthing and inpatient unit, pathology, and a new main entry.
Staff, community and stakeholders have helped shaped the planning and design of $105 million redeveloped hospital.
Hutchinson Builders has been engaged to deliver the project, which will be supported by up to 90 sub-contractors at the peak of construction.
