This project will include the construction of a 40,000m² clinical building housing a new emergency department, theatres, ambulatory care centre, paediatric short-stay unit, a bigger intensive care unit, and medical imaging facility, along with additional adult overnight inpatient beds.

It will integrate with the remaining campus and incorporate the Graythwaite Rehabilitation Centre and Denistone House, a building dating back 146 years.

In line with the Ryde district’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2035, the project will feature sustainable elements, such as capacity for over 100 photovoltaic cells, a green roof, 18 electric vehicle charging stations, and an integrated waste management facility.

AW Edwards started work on the site earlier this year, with the new hospital building expected to be completed by 2027.

The redevelopment will also include the creation of underground car parks.

Local subcontractors and suppliers will be involved in the project, which is set to support the Ryde area, where the population is projected to surpass 180,000 by 2041.

The construction of the new main entrance, demolition of existing buildings, and landscaping will continue into 2028, Bouygues Construction noted.

Bouygues Construction deputy CEO Pierre-Eric Saint André said: “We are proud of being selected for the redevelopment of Ryde Hospital and of contributing to improved access to quality healthcare for the residents of the region.

“We will draw on all our technical know-how and expertise in the healthcare sector to ensure the success of the project, and to achieve the environmental goals that have been set.”
