Noida hospital design gets IIT approval

NOIDA: IIT-Delhi has approved the design
for the proposed district hospital building
in Sector 39, Noida. The project report for
the building had been sent to IIT after a
private consultant prepared it for Noida
Authority.
IIT's approval has cleared the decks for
necessary documentation related to
tendering process for the construction
work. "All paperwork is expected to be
completed by September end. After this,
tenders will be floated for construction of
the building," said an Authority official.
Authority officials said it will take at least
two years to complete construction.
The estimated cost to be incurred by the
Authority has been pegged at Rs 425 crore.
The hospital will have 200 beds and be
equipped with a state-of-the-art trauma
centre. The Noida Authority board had
approved the plan to upgrade the district
hospital in January.
The hospital will have a double basement
for parking vehicles. Officials said the
hospital premises will have housing
quarters for the staff on emergency duty.
Earlier this year, Noida Authority had
decided against shifting the now defunct
Sector 39 district hospital to the Ambedkar
hospital in Sector 30. It had, instead,
announced that it will be upgraded it into
a multi-speciality utility.
