New Surrey Hospital and BC Cancer Centre
Surrey BC is a fast-growing community in need of additional healthcare resources. The New Surrey Hospital and BC Cancer Centre will provide 168 hospital beds and 55 Emergency Department treatment spaces in a state-of-the-art facility to improve health services in the region.
The $2.88B hospital project reached its one-year construction milestone in August 2024 and is anticipated to be completed in 2029 and open to the public in 2030. Additional features of the fully-electric facility include a surgical/perioperative suite with five ORs, four procedure rooms and virtual care options in all clinical service areas to increase capacity and expand care. The new BC Cancer Centre is expected to provide approximately 105,000 ambulatory oncology care visits, 50,000 radiation therapy visits and 22,000 chemotherapy visits each year. The facility is being built under a Design-Build Agreement with EllisDon Design Build Inc.
Leading BC's first generation of smart hospitals, the new Surrey hospital will embed data insights and new technologies into both the design of the facility and delivery of clinical care. The Angus Connect team is providing a full spectrum of ICAT/IMIT design and AGV consulting, and HH Angus’ Vertical Transportation team is designing the elevator systems.
