$105 million Moree Hospital Redevelopment reaches new heights
The Moree Hospital Redevelopment has reached a major milestone, with the new two-storey acute services building reaching its highest point and the roof now complete.
The NSW Government’s $105 million investment in the Moree Hospital Redevelopment will deliver a new acute services building to support contemporary models of care and provide patients, families and carers with a modern health facility that meets the current and future healthcare needs of the community.
The redevelopment will deliver -
- An emergency department
- ambulance bay
- operating theatre
- medical imaging
- birthing
- inpatient unit
- pathology
- kiosk
- a main entrance.
To complete the roof of the new acute services building, almost 3 kilometres of roofing battens and 2,900 square metres of roof sheeting were installed.
This milestone follows the completion of groundworks and concrete pours for the redevelopment, including more than 3,000 tonnes of fill and over 2,000 cubic metres of concrete poured.
With most structural works now complete, work will progress on the internal fit-out of the new building and exterior façade.
As part of the redevelopment, the Crane and Glennie Building was recently demolished to create a new courtyard, connecting the new acute services building with the existing hospital buildings. The landscaped courtyard will improve connectivity across the campus and create a welcoming and accessible space for patients, visitors and staff to enjoy.
The redevelopment is being delivered in partnership with Hunter New England Local Health District and Hutchinson Builders.
Construction is expected to be completed in 2027.
