Katy Gallagher is letting us know that Leighton Contractors is going to build the new Women’s and Children’s Hospital for $97 million.
“I am very pleased to announce that Leighton Contractors, one of Australia’s leading contracting and project development groups, has been appointed as Project Manager to oversee the construction of what will be a world class facility for women, children and their families from Canberra and the surrounding region,” Ms Gallagher said.
The Minister joined senior clinicians, project officers, architects and representatives of Leighton Contractors for the important milestone and official signing of the contract near the site of the new $97 million hospital which will be built surrounding the existing Maternity building at the northern end of the Canberra Hospital campus.
It’s progress.
