Design, construction, operation, maintenance and financing of a new acute hospital for Forth Valley in Scotland.
Acute hospital services in Forth Valley are currently divided between Stirling and Falkirk Infirmaries, a situation considered to be unsustainable, both clinically and economically. The project represents a key component of the healthcare strategy for the area, centralising acute inpatient services on one site located in Larbert.
The Project involves the development of healthcare facilities on a brownfield site, previously used for healthcare purposes, in a largely parkland setting. A full Environmental Impact Assessment has been requested by the local authorities to support the outline planning application for the site.
As is standard for UK PFIs, the project has been procured in accordance with relevant EC Directives.
