Kirwan Ambulance Station

KIRWAN AMBULANCE STATION IS LOCATED AT HINCHINBROOK DRIVE, THURINGOWA. THIS PROJECT WAS A DESIGN AND CONSTRUCT – REPLACEMENT AMBULANCE STATION.

After multiple previous refurbishments the existing facility was in poor condition, with significant asbestos and had reached the end of its lifecycle. As a result, the Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) decided to demolish the existing building and construct a new modern, purpose-built facility on the existing site that will continue to support the delivery of first response health care services in the community.

The Department of Health (DoH), through QAS, proposed the construction of a replacement ambulance station, based on a modified QAS Standard Design AU4 with an AP4 ten (10) bay plant room and complying with all the requirements of the National Construction Code and other relevant legislation.
