The contractor will act as principal provide chain companion for NHS Lothian on the brand new specialist facility on the Edinburgh BioQuarter in Little France.
The venture will substitute the ageing Eye Pavilion, which was first declared “not match for function” in 2014.
Since then the scheme has been hit by funding withdrawals, price range freezes and shifting authorities priorities, pushing the anticipated opening again to late 2027 or past.
In 2018, Graham was lined up on a £45m contract to ship the hospital, however the plan stalled as prices escalated.
The brand new hospital will sit alongside the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh and the Royal Hospital for Kids and Younger Individuals, forming a part of the capital’s increasing healthcare and analysis campus.
Kier mentioned it will draw on expertise from delivering the NHS Golden Jubilee Eye Hospital and Sunderland Eye Infirmary.
Sean Fenner, Managing Director, Kier Development North & Scotland, mentioned: “We’re proud to be the Principal Provide Chain Associate for NHS Lothian to ship early development works on the new Princess Alexandra Eye Pavilion.”
