Liverpool. $390 million project underway

Work has commenced on the $390 million, state-of-the-art redevelopment of Liverpool Hospital, making it the largest hospital campus in the nation, when it is expected to be completed in 2011. The project will include almost 1000 beds, 60 intensive care beds, 23 operating theatres and a 12-level car park. A road and bridge will be built over the railway line that separates the precinct. Liverpool and Westmead will be the two major referral hospitals in Western Sydney.
