Projects

Project: Ballarat Base Hospital (Stage 3)
The Victorian Government is investing $595 million to redevelop and expand the Ballarat Base Hospital. The redevelopment will deliver a new emergency department, a women and children’s hub, state-of-the-art theatre suite and an extra 100 inpatient and short stay beds. A new and expanded critical care floor will bring together operating theatres, procedure rooms, an expanded intensive care unit, endoscopy suites and consulting rooms. This will deliver capacity for an additional 4,000 surgeries every year. Once completed, the upgraded hospital will have the capacity to treat at least 18,000 more emergency patients and an extra 14,500 inpatients per year.
Built has been appointed to deliver the final stage of the massive $595 million Ballarat Base Hospital redevelopment. This stage will deliver the new multi-level tower which features a new ground-floor emergency department, a women's and children's hub, a world-class theatre suite and an extra 100 inpatient and short-stay beds.

Project: Eureka Sports Precinct
Development Victoria is looking forward to delivering a range of important upgrades at Eureka Stadium and the wider Eureka Sports Precinct as part of the Victorian Government’s Regional Sports Infrastructure Program.
The project was formally announced by Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Steve Dimopoulos in April 2024, giving the community their first glimpse of artist's renders for the Precinct based on early schematic designs.
The upgrades will include 5,000 new permanent seats within the stadium, a new athletics track and better accessibility across the Eureka Sports Precinct.
The upgrades will boost local jobs, businesses and attract more visitors to the Ballarat region, with works set to begin later this year.

The Expression of Interest for a Head Contractor to deliver the Eureka Sports Precinct upgrades was released in early April, with details on this procurement process available through the Buying for Victoria website.
