The latest plans for the $431 million redevelopment will be on display at community drop-in information sessions to be held in the Wagga Marketplace on Thursday, October 18.

The sessions on stage three of the redevelopment will be held from noon to 2pm and again from 3pm to 7pm.

Wagga Health Service director Helen Cooper said this was a good opportunity for all members of the community to drop-in and meet members of the redevelopment project team, ask questions or give feedback on stage three.

“New artist impressions and floor plans will also be on display during the sessions to give people the opportunity to see how the redevelopment stage three will look and feel,” she said.

A five-storey ambulatory care building adjoining the new Wagga Base Hospital is the centrepiece of stage three.

It will bring into a single location a range of sub-acute inpatient, primary and community health services and ambulatory care services, previously delivered from a number of facilities at various locations in the city.

“It provides not only a new multi-storey building but will also deliver a modern and integrated health service with expanded services to meet the needs of the local communities now and into the future,” Ms Cooper said.

Stage three also includes the relocation of BreastScreen NSW into a refurbished building in Berry Street in Wagga’s central business district.

Further information about Stage 3 is available through the Redevelopment website.
