SNEAK PEEK: New WLMH renderings

The WLMH redevelopment project once again entered unprecedented territory last week with the Stage 3 submission being sent to the Ministry of Health for approval: the final stage before the project is approved for tender in July!

This submission builds on the Stage 2 approval received in January and summarizes all the details required for the bidders to deliver a concept, design and price to construct the new hospital.

It also means we’re able to develop updated illustrative design renderings for the project! These renderings show what the hospital could look like, based on many of the requirements we’re putting forward to build teams to include in their bids for the project.

Bidders will apply their own innovations and solutions to meet the project’s needs, so these illustrations may still change somewhat.

The images illustrate the final plan with the former WLMH buildings removed; replaced with parks and parking. Due to the constraints on the site and robust specifications that will be in the tender package, it is very likely that the new WLMH will replicate many of the site and building characteristics shown in these renderings.
