An artist’s impression of what the new car park at Frankston Hospital could look like.
A new three level multi-storey car park has been announced for Frankston Hospital.
The new car park with 750 spaces will significantly ease the current burden around lack of parking at the hospital.
The car park will be funded by a $16 million loan from the State Government, repayable over 25 years.
Peninsula Health CEO Sue Williams said the announcement is excellent news for our patients, staff and visitors.
“The ongoing expansion and redevelopment of Frankston Hospital in recent years has increased the burden on available car parking spaces,” she said.
“The existing multi-deck car park at Frankston Hospital, which opened in 2013, provides 570 spaces and these are often full by 8.30am.
“The new car park will better service the increasing number of visitors to Frankston Hospital.”
The modern new car park, to be constructed on the site of the exiting Dundas Street on-grade car park, will have four lifts, and CCTV coverage of all vehicle and pedestrian entry and exit points. The style and design of the new car park will be sympathetic to the existing multi-deck car park.
A selective tender process is currently underway to appoint a ‘design and construct’ contractor. Tender applications close on 21 July with construction of the car park expected to commence in November.
