On-site work for the first step in a four-phase expansion at the Richmond Hospital in Metro Vancouver is scheduled to start next year.
Earlier this month, the B.C. government approved the business plan for the $860.8 million project, laying out construction timelines and spelling out certain design details.
Anchored by a new, nine-floor patient tower that will include an emergency department, intensive care unit, 11 operating rooms and space for specialized imaging equipment, the major construction project will run over nine years.
