Redevelopment Project

What a big year for the Burnaby Hospital redevelopment project. In 2022-2023, we:

Broke ground on the two new buildings: the Keith and Betty Beedie Pavilion and the Support Facilities Building expansion.

Undertook fully-constructed model room reviews with over 150 staff and medical staff to test and refine the design of new operating rooms, patient rooms, clinic spaces, and more.

Welcomed our first and second crane on the construction site.

Began renovations within existing buildings.

Submitted the business case for Burnaby Hospital Redevelopment Phase 2 and BC Cancer Centre to the provincial government.

Completed excavation for the new Beedie Pavilion and started the ‘building phase’.

Celebrated our one-year anniversary of the start of construction for Phase 1.

We’ve made major strides in getting the new hospital off the ground and the work is well underway.

It will be another busy year - here’s what to expect in2023-2024:

Anticipated approval for phase two business plan to proceed. Designs of the hospital will cross the finish line.

Structure of the six-storey Beedie Pavilion and seven-storey Support Facilities Building expansion will be complete by fall 2023.

Operational readiness planning and validation of staffing requirements will begin.
