It’s been a year since shovels went in the ground for the new South Niagara Hospital, and the progress made to-date is significant.
In July 2024, the South Niagara Hospital Project marked its first year of construction. Watch the video to get a behind-the-fence look at the progress to date.
Momentum continues with the South Niagara Hospital project. After the groundbreaking ceremony in July 2023, our partners EllisDon Infrastructure Healthcare have started construction on the 1.3-million-square-foot hospital. This state-of-the-art facility will take approximately five years to build, with opening planned for summer 2028.
Since March 2020 we have undergone significant consultation and engagement with staff, physicians, patients and community partners to design the new South Niagara Hospital, which will be located at the corner of Montrose and Biggar roads in Niagara Falls. There are over 15,000 pages of criteria detailing the site and building design, operational, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and facilities management requirements, along with technical specifications for the new hospital. That’s over 15,000 pages of planning and design documents based on direct input provided.
We recognize that now, more than ever, the infrastructure of a hospital is an essential component in ensuring we have the capacity to respond to, and roll out effective infection prevention and control measures. With the challenges of new and emerging infectious diseases, as well as higher public expectations and awareness of healthcare related issues, Niagara Health is leveraging the lessons learned and applying them into the development of the new hospital.
We are well positioned and are working to ensure that we are capturing the information we need to build a facility that delivers the highest quality of care for our patients and reflects the needs of the Niagara community.

While construction is well underway, one critical piece remains: ensuring our community meets its local share commitment. Without it, we risk delays, and more importantly, we jeopardize Niagara’s ability to secure future provincial healthcare funding.
From interior designers to registered nurses and project managers on the construction team, women at Niagara Health are playing a major role in the planning and implementation of the South Niagara Hospital Project.
The highly anticipated event raised over $720,000 in support of the It's Our Future campaign, the capital fundraising initiative for the new South Niagara Hospital.
How the hospital project is prioritizing the health of our people, and the planet.
The South Niagara Hospital is less than four years away from opening its doors, and Niagara Health continues to work diligently on hospital planning. We are once again seeking input from the community, this time through a survey open to all Niagara residents to help shape the retail and food and beverage strategy for the new hospital.
There are exciting opportunities for businesses and individuals. Have your say in the planning of the new South Niagara Hospital.
