NSW Ambulance, in conjunction with Health Infrastructure, is improving its infrastructure assets across NSW to ensure high-quality emergency medical care continues to be delivered to regional and rural communities now and into the future.

Project Overview

The NSW Government’s $122 million Rural Ambulance Infrastructure Reconfiguration (RAIR) program includes 24 locations across New South Wales that will benefit from upgrade, rebuilt or entirely new ambulance stations.
The stations delivered in the program typically include: internal parking for ambulance vehicles; administration and office areas; staff amenities; logistics and storage areas and relief accommodation where needed.

• Providing design project management services
• Obtaining stakeholder, ministry and authority approvals
• Management of the revision to the RAIR Design Guidelines, inclusive of incorporating key learnings from completed stations
