Narrabeen Ambulance Station redevelopment confirmed
The Northern Beaches community will benefit from a new ambulance station, with the current Narrabeen Ambulance Station set to be replaced on its existing site.
The new Narrabeen Ambulance Station is one of 30 additional ambulance stations being delivered as part of the NSW Government’s $615.5 million NSW Ambulance Infrastructure Program.
The new and purpose-built ambulance station will boost frontline health infrastructure and support local paramedics to provide the best emergency and mobile medical care while meeting growing needs of Northern Beaches region.
Following an extensive land search across Dee Why and the Northern Beaches, the existing site on Pittwater Road was confirmed as the most suitable location to optimise response performance and meet the needs of emergency ambulance operations and paramedic staff.
The new ambulance station will feature internal parking for up to 10 emergency ambulance vehicles, vehicle wash facilities, administration, multipurpose and logistics spaces, as well as staff amenities.
The next steps for the project include design development and seeking planning approval for the new station. Construction and operational timeframes will be confirmed as the project progresses. The community will be kept up to date through project planning and delivery.
Importantly, the local community will continue to have 24/7 ambulance coverage during planning and construction of the new Narrabeen Ambulance station.
Health Infrastructure is continuing to work with NSW Ambulance and other government stakeholders to identify potential sites for new stations. Other ambulance station sites confirmed include North Sydney, South Windsor, Oran Park, Berowra, Prestons, Moss Vale, Bargo, Lisarow, Glendenning, Caves Beach, Carlingford, Macquarie Park, Unanderra and Warilla.
