Progress continues skyward at the construction site on Bell McKinnon Road. These photos show the vertical progress, from July 2023 to July 2024, highlighting the pace and the crew's commitment to completing construction in 2026. Once the interior spaces are ready, staff will have time to test and train within the new hospital in preparation for the first patient care day in 2027. In the future Diagnostic & Treatment Centre (D&T), the crews celebrated a project milestone marking structural steel completion of this important outpatient and diagnostic service wing of the new hospital. In the adjacent Inpatient Unit (IPU), workers continue with forming level 7 of the tower as teams continue to build the reach out wing and future home of the Indigenous Health program wing and administrative space above. Civil work also continues with installation of water and sanitary lines on Bell McKinnon Road and widening of Bell McKinnon north of the build site. Over the coming months, construction will continue with the closing up of the exterior envelope and interior works within levels 0, 1, and 2 of the D&T following removal of crane 2.
