Client
Eastern Cape Department of Health and Coega Development Corporation (CDC).

Project Description
The Khotsong TB hospital will benefit from an upgrade and a new hospital, as part of the Department of Health’s three-year infrastructure programme to deal with deficient facilities across the province.

The project will be completed in two phases.
Phase 1 will result in the rehabilitation and conversion of existing structures – the paediatric ward, the administration block and ablution rooms – the erection of new security fencing and the construction of new security control infrastructure.

Phase 2 will encompass the construction of a 120-bed hospital, with general TB and multiple drug-resistant TB wards, which includes the demolition of condemned existing structures.

Value
R302-million.

Duration
The project will take about three years to complete.

Latest Developments
The Department of Health broke ground on the project on July 12.
