Multi-level car park for Logan Hospital by 2021

The tender process for design and construction of the project will start this week and construction will begin mid next year.

Health Minister Steven Miles said the $61.92 million project would ease the burden on patients and visitors who struggle to find a car park.

"We know the last thing our patients need during a visit to hospital is the added stress of searching for a car park," he said.

"This project will significantly boost the number of car parks ahead of the $460 million Logan Hospital Expansion which will increase the capacity of the hospital by almost half.

"Construction of the car park will support up to 150 construction jobs and when complete, there will be more than 2000 car parks available on or adjacent to the hospital for patients, visitors and staff.

"This is part of our Government's commitment to providing the best possible healthcare no matter where you live in Queensland."

Parking fees will apply to the multi-level car park to cover the cost of the project.

A Queensland Health spokesperson said parking prices had not yet been determined.

Waterford MP Shannon Fentiman said a covered pedestrian bridge would link the car park to the main hospital building.

"The safety of hospital staff and patients is our number one priority. The new car park will feature safe walking routes, lighting, CCTV and duress points on each level to enhance security," Ms Fentiman said.

"The project will also increase safety by reducing the need to park off-site, particularly for staff working into the later hours."

Woodridge MP Cameron Dick said additional car parks would help the hospital cope with increased demand.

"Logan Hospital is situated in one of Queensland's largest growth corridors, so our demand for healthcare services continues to grow," Mr Dick said.

"That's why we've made such a significant investment to deliver one of our state's largest ever hospital expansion projects right here in Logan."

The car park is expected to open in late 2021.
