The new Windsor/Essex acute care hospital will soon move to the next stage of actual construction.

The project is now expected to open its doors in 2031 after navigating years of legal challenges over the site selection process and choice.

The final budget was set at $2 billion , but the long delay in getting to the construction phase has seen inflation push the cost of materials and labour to much higher levels.

The existing Ouellette campus will remain operational for out-patient services and a 24-hour , seven-days-a-week emergency department.

The new hospital will bring new economic opportunities to expand the local health care sector.

Musyj said it also allows for an expansion of relationships with the University of Windsor and St. Clair College .

Invest WindsorEssex is planning to dedicate a person to focus on the health care sector.

Goncalves said the new hospital’s presence will also create all kinds of commercial, restaurant, retails and medical office development on the Sandwich South lands, especially with the industrial development also taking place across the road on the Windsor Airport lands.
