Mater Private Hospital Townsville is dedicated to improving healthcare services for the community, with current operations contributing more than $190 million in economic activity to the North Queensland region.
As part of the Mater Private Hospital Townsville Master Plan, a new 400-space, multi-storey car park is being constructed at the Pimlico campus. Construction of the car park is well underway with completion expected in mid-2022.
Once complete, the car park will provide onsite, dedicated and undercover parking spaces for patients, staff and visitors. It will also incorporate Indigenous artwork, with a bespoke digital artwork installation to be featured on the external facade.
With an expected $7.6 million in public benefit, the car park will create 12 full time jobs during construction and opportunities for up to 40 apprentices and more than 700 sub-contractors over the life of the project.
Ensuring convenient parking in close proximity to the hospital is an important part of the services Mater offers to patients and their families.
