for a new Emergency Department extension covering 310 sq metres of single storey extension with rooftop plant room and internal refurbishment of the existing department. At the existing lower ground floor level, a new public entrance lobby with security room will be formed adjacent a reconfigured ambulance drop-off and set-down area. The extension will provide 9 new patient cubicles, including gynaecology treatment room and associated staff and clinical support facilities. The extension will link into the existing building by way of a new accessible reception, leading to a newly formed dedicated paediatric waiting area and WC. The existing emergency department will undergo a series of phased internal refurbishment works to provide modernised staff changing facilities, additional patient treatment cubicles and reconfigured storage and staff support facilities. The works will include a reconfiguration of the existing internal campus 2-way traffic flow to become a 1-way traffic flow in the vicinity of the Emergency Department extension, formation of a new accessible set-down area, reconfigured ambulance drop-off areas and works to form a new pedestrian crossing and improve accessibility and safety around the immediate site. Drainage, water, and electrical utility connections will be made within the campus to the existing site infrastructure, and all other ancillary site works as required to facilitate the project
