LEND Lease has been awarded the construction contract for the University of Queensland’s new $120 million Oral Health Centre at its Herston campus in Brisbane.
The OHC is set to be Australia’s most advanced oral health facility, incorporating dental clinics and research laboratories, state-of-the-art teaching and learning spaces and office space across seven levels.
Lend Lease’s project management and construction managing director Murray Coleman said the OHC will set a benchmark for oral health facilities in Australia.
The OHC will be located on Bramston Terrace at the University of Queensland’s Herston campus in Brisbane, adjacent to the Mayne Medical School building.
Construction will commence later this month with completion scheduled for late 2012. Approximately 375 new jobs are expected to be generated from construction alone.
