Health Infrastructure (HI) is proposing to carry out works at Grafton Base Hospital at 184 Arthur Street, Grafton, on land described as Lot 2 2 DP 1024231.

The NSW Government is investing $263.8 million in the Grafton Base Hospital Redevelopment to provide new and enhanced health services for the region.

The project involves delivering a new three-storey building, including a new Emergency Department, Emergency Short Stay, Medical Imaging and MRI, and inpatient unit. The new inpatient building, located on the north-east side of the campus, will be seamlessly integrated into the existing hospital via a new hospital street at the current public main entrance. This will connect to a lobby in the new building to enhance access.

The redevelopment will improve access to the hospital for patients, visitors and staff including public access to the hospital from Arthur Street, with a turning circle drop-off zone for visitors. There will also be a new road off Queen Street that will provide ambulances with direct access to the Emergency Department, as well as a new public car park.

As part of this process, a Review of Environmental Factors (REF) has been prepared to assess the works impacts and is on public exhibition until midnight on Friday 19 December 2025.

You’re invited to view the plans and make a submission in the online form below. The submissions received will be used to finalise the details of the design.

The project team appreciates the valuable time and input provided by staff, stakeholders and the community into the design process for the Grafton Base Hospital Redevelopment.
