Lendlease has been selected by the Queensland Government as the preferred contractor to deliver the Redcliffe Hospital Expansion, a major health infrastructure project for the Moreton Bay region and a centrepiece of the state's Hospital Rescue Plan.

The appointment will see Lendlease work in partnership with Health Infrastructure Queensland and Metro North Health across all stages of the project. With a focus on maintaining continuity of care throughout construction, delivery will be carefully staged to ensure hospital services remain uninterrupted.

The first major stage centres on a new Clinical Services Building, delivering more than 200 new overnight beds alongside expanded maternity, endoscopy and operating theatre services. A staged refurbishment of the existing hospital building will follow. Early and enabling works are scheduled to commence later this year.

The project carries a strong local procurement commitment, with approximately 90% of subcontractors expected to be sourced from the Moreton Bay region. The program will also invest in apprenticeships and training opportunities, building construction capability in one of Queensland's fastest-growing communities.

Stephanie Graham, CEO of Construction at Lendlease, says the project represents a significant commitment to the Moreton Bay community. "The Redcliffe Hospital Expansion is a critical project for Queensland, and we're pleased to partner with the Queensland Government, Health Infrastructure Queensland and Metro North Health to bring it to life."

Graham adds that Lendlease's established presence across Queensland positions the company well for delivery. "With a long history of delivering health infrastructure across Queensland, we're looking forward to working with local suppliers and industry partners to deliver this important project for the Moreton Bay community, supporting local jobs, skills development and long-term economic benefits for the region."

Lendlease brings direct experience to the project, with active health infrastructure work in every state across Australia.

For Health Infrastructure Queensland, the appointment follows a competitive procurement process that drew strong interest from the market. Blake Lepper, Deputy Director-General at Health Infrastructure Queensland, says the breadth of that response reflects the significance of the project. "It's been amazing to see the strong interest from the market in supporting the delivery of the Redcliffe Hospital Expansion. We're happy to be partnering with Lendlease to deliver this project to serve the local Moreton Bay community now and into the future."
