Oatlands Ambulance Station
Oatlands, Tasmania
Macquarie Builders were chosen for the construction of the new Ambulance Station and Residence in Oatlands, Tasmania. This project is a new stand alone modern precast facility.
Major activities included in-situ and precast concrete work, structural steelwork, roofing and glazing. The state-of-the-art facility features two purpose-built ambulance bays, a functional two-bedroom residence for paramedics, integrated training facilities, and all necessary amenities. The exemplary planning, close collaboration among client and subcontractors, and execution of all aspects of workplace health and safety are to be commended.
As is the fourth of six new rural and regional ambulance stations across Tasmania, the Oatlands facility will improve access to healthcare and frontline response, highlighting the builder’s exceptional capability in delivering essential emergency infrastructure, while ensuring scope, quality and cost expectations were exceeded. The project was completed in November 2024.
