Yeah, everything's really looking good. I mean, this site was determined in, well announced in
00:06
December 2020. So the first works actually started June last year. So look at the amount of progress
00:12
that's been done since June 2024. The last time I was here was December last year and I think I
00:20
was over there somewhere. I don't think there was any concrete. None of these structures here at all.
00:28
So, I mean, it's good to be on this, which was just finalized, finished last week. Bit sorry I
00:34
wasn't here with my stick to put, you know, my heart and MH loves it, loves LS for posterity.
00:41
But yeah, so this is, this is the first of, I think what we're talking about, 20 slabs?
00:48
24 slabs. 24 slabs. And quite significant for me in my former incarnation as the obstetrician
00:57
and gynecologist. And that is, if I hadn't retired, I probably would have been working here
01:01
still in 2027 with the new maternity unit. But more significantly, and I think the perspective
01:07
here is actually that this, this site, this spot we're sitting on, standing on, is going to be the
01:13
first dedicated pediatric unit in the Yerba della. Now that's historic. That's a real milestone.
01:20
So we've got these milestones. In other words, this is on track. It's progressing. We've got
01:27
milestones coming. This slab laying work's going to start in the next few months on the roundabout
01:32
on the highway, which is expected to be completed by late 2025. The reality of the bypass is that
01:42
the preferred route has been determined. We know which way it's going to come through.
01:46
But north of here, a bypass has to be built at Milk Nala Dalla. And as far as workforce and
01:52
resources and funding, there are limitations before progressing to bypasses at the same time.
02:00
The bypass was never a prerequisite for building this hospital. Ambulance services and patient
02:08
transport have navigated the Princess Highway between Batemans Bay and Moorooya for the past
02:14
50 years. And ambulance services have navigated traffic, they've navigated natural
02:23
disasters such as flood and fire, et cetera, to be able to access this.
