What could go where in the precinct?

A concept map developed as part of the masterplan shows the existing key elements already in place in the health precinct, along with possible locations for new zones for development.

The current elements include:

• The general hospital and Bloomfield mental health hospital
• The new private hospital
• The agricultural research area
• The TAFE educational facility
• Sporting and open space recreation areas
• Aged care facilities

The proposed new zones include:

• An advanced medical and related manufacturing zone (incorporating the Leewood industrial estate)
• An integrated health research development zone (on the section of the former golf course alongside the main hospital)
• A new residential zone (on a section of the former golf course driving range alongside Huntley and Bloomfield roads)
• A student and health staff accommodation zone (on the section of the golf course, north of the residential zone)
• Additional aged care facilities
• An area for a new motel alongside the southern feeder road.
