A significant step forward for emergency care in Wagga Wagga and across our region.
An early view has been released for a new NSW Ambulance helicopter base in Wagga Wagga, one of the first two new regional bases to be delivered.
The purpose-built facility will support aeromedical emergency and retrieval services, helping improve access to critical care for people across the Riverina.
Having worked in emergency medicine at Wagga Base Hospital, I know how much timely access to specialist care can matter, particularly for people living in rural and regional communities.
Construction is expected to begin in early 2027, subject to planning approval and the appointment of a builder.
I look forward to working with NSW Ambulance to implement this significant development.
