The project also included a new stand-alone multi-level car park, extension and refurbishment works to improve the loading dock and kitchen and realignment and expansion of the hospital road access system, including new fire truck access.
Challenges facing during construction include the operating hospital, in particular extending the existing operating lift and stair shafts, the loading dock and the kitchen whilst these sections remained active to service the hospital. There was also tight access and loading areas to the work site that had to be worked around.
Multiplex is proud to be part of a project providing greater healthcare facilities and services to Victoria.
