Victorian Premier, John Brumby, has announced that the Victorian Government has reached contractual close with the Children’s Health Partnership consortium, comprising Bovis Lend Lease, Babcock & Brown and Spotless Group, for the redevelopment of the new A$1 billion Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne.
As part of the consortium, Bovis Lend Lease will be responsible for the project management, design and construction of the new world-class facility, which is scheduled to open in 2011.
General Manager of Bovis Lend Lease – Victoria, Mr Geoff Moore, said construction would commence immediately.
“With contractual close now reached, we are looking forward to working with the Victorian Government on one of the largest and most important health projects ever undertaken in Australia’s history.
