Billard Leece Partnership (BLP) and Cox Architecture have been appointed as the designers of the new Bundaberg Hospital, a $1.2 billion project that will provide vital health care services to the growing city.
The architects are part of the CPD Contractors consortium, which was selected as the preferred bidder for stage one of the development by the Queensland government.
The six-storey facility will house critical health departments including acute, medical, surgical, and mental health care, as well as emergency and clinical support services, supplemented by essential infrastructure.
BLP managing director, Tara Veldman, said they are thrilled to be involved with the delivery of such an important and beneficial project.
“It is a privilege to contribute to the delivery of the new Bundaberg Hospital, a project that will significantly enhance the Queensland region’s health infrastructure,” she said. “Our shared vision aims to establish a modern, future-proofed health facility that caters to the needs of the Bundaberg community and the wider Wide Bay-Burnett region.”
The design for the new hospital is expected to be completed in early 2024, with construction to follow.
