Land Secured for Future Hospital in South Auckland

The New Zealand Government has secured a 13-hectare site in Drury for a future hospital facility, catering to the growing population of South Auckland. The site, purchased from Fisher & Paykel Healthcare, offers strong connections to public transport and key transport routes. Health Minister Simeon Brown emphasizes the importance of planning ahead to meet the area's long-term healthcare needs. The land will enable Health New Zealand to consider various future health infrastructure options, including a major hospital, subject to future planning and investment decisions.
