A new health centre at Puckapunyal will be constructed on a vacant site (an unused sporting oval) on the corner of Mont St Quentin Road and Morobe Road, based on a fully documented design. The existing Health Centre will be demolished upon completion and transition into the new facility. The single storey building is approximately 1,700m2 and will be a steel framed structure with a steel roof and will include services and finishes typical of modern health facilities. It will be a comprehensive modern health facility similar to a General Practice Super-Clinic with aspects of a regional hospital.
