October’s total of $8.2 billion is nearly 15 percent lower than September’s near-record performance, but more closely reflects normal monthly construction activity.

The redevelopment project will involve the construction of a new, larger hospital on the property behind the existing facility in Grimsby.

The funding was announced in the Ontario government’s 2020 budget and can be used toward the renewal and modernization of campus facilities, including building systems upgrades, roof repairs, and mechanical and electrical system upgrades.

The Plenary Health CAMH team turned over two more buildings at Toronto’s Centre for Addiction and Mental Health on November 25.

The first piece of the construction puzzle on the $1-billion South Niagara Hospital project is in place. Stantec will provide planning, design and conformance services, and an RFQ for P3 proponents is scheduled for release next winter.
