Kier wins £75m Manchester private hospital

Kier Construction’s north west business is finalising the contract to building a private hospital for Nuffield Health in Manchester.

Designed by Pozzoni, the 100,000 sq ft private hospital will be built at Manchester Metropolitan University’s former Elizabeth Gaskell campus.

Revised plans for the hospital, which will now consist of a brick envelop rather than rain screen cladding system first proposed, were approved at the start of the year.

The hospital will comprise 30 consultation rooms, 60 patient en-suite bedrooms, eight critical care beds, six operating theatres and a rehabilitation gym.

Phase 1 which includes the refurbishment of Shepherd’s House into an office building, with construction of the main hospital brought forward in the second phase.

The health and wellbeing facility,  which is due to complete in 2018, will achieve a BREEAM rating of at least ‘Very Good’.
