2025 project recap Project milestones Jan 2025 – May 2025 Construction of interim facilities April 2025
In 2025, the Ryde Hospital Redevelopment made significant progress. Early in the year, interim facilities, including the ICU/CCU, hospital kitchen, executive and engineering buildings and loading dock, were built and commissioned to ensure the continued delivery of high- quality care throughout the redevelopment. By mid-year, all interim facilities were fully operational, providing modern amenities for patients and staff. Parking changes and other service adjustments were also completed, supporting ongoing construction activities. Main works progressed through site establishment, hoarding, demolition, piling, services diversions and earthworks. Ambulance Lane works progressed, and Blue Gum High Forest restoration activities were carried out. Demolition and temporary service diversions from the existing hospital were completed, carefully coordinated to ensure patient care, staff access, and car movements were maintained safely. The first tranche of Models of Care development also began, with user group sessions to continue into 2026. These groups ensure the hospital functions reflect patient needs and clinical best practice. In the final months of 2025, foundation activities and earthworks for the new Acute Services Building (ASB) advanced, and two tower cranes arrived on site, marking a major milestone for the project. Watch the tower crane installation video here. Remaining activities for the year will include steel reinforcement activities and concrete pours to continue progressing the lift and stair cores, along with excavation, retention wall construction, and piling to form the future basement car park.
