In October 2003 the State Government of Victoria announced the
construction of a new Royal Women’s Hospital, to be located on a
site next to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in Parkville. The
new hospital is intended to be one of the southern hemisphere’s
leading women’s hospitals, delivering accessible, effective and
high quality services to Victorian women and their newborn
babies.
The newly-built hospital in Parkville has been procured by
contracting the private sector, under the Partnerships
Victoria framework, to design, build, finance and maintain the
facility for 25 years from mid-June 2008 onwards.
