CONSTRUCTION of new facilities at Inglewood and Districts Health Service will start next month.
Contractors have started demolition of old accommodation buildings that will be replaced with an allied health and student accommodation precinct.
The $1.7 million will also see construction of a lifestyle and leisure building, gymnasium and consulting rooms for the allied health team.
Bendigo firm Franklin and Walsh has been awarded the contract.
Health service CEO Dallas Coghill said it was exciting to see the first steps taken in the project following its announcement last year.
Meanwhile, construction of the nearby new Inglewood ambulance station is also underway after a the site was cleared mid-year. Demolition work finished in August but the site was idle for three months.
Inglewood is one of 14 new or upgraded stations currently under construction, and is expected to be completed by mid-2023.
