Cranes Come Down As Hospital Goes Up In Footscray

Cranes have started coming down at the site of the Andrews Labor Government’s massive new Footscray Hospital – which for more than a year, was home to the most cranes in the Southern Hemisphere.

To date, the project has seen more than 125,000 hours completed by apprentices, trainees or cadets, and more than 245,000 hours have been completed by disadvantaged Victorians.

Once completed the new Footscray Hospital will treat almost 15,000 more patients and allow 20,000 extra people to be seen by the emergency department each year.
