A new hospital and cancer center has been announced in Surrey.

Premier David Eby and Health Minister Adrian Dix made the announcement on Tuesday morning while laying the foundation stone.

The new hospital will be built on 176th Street in the Cloverdale area near the Kwantlen Polytechnic University campus.

Eby said this second hospital in Surrey will not only improve the health of people living in the region but will also change many lives.

He said that people living in Surrey have been asking for this hospital for a long time and although the new hospital will be ready in 2029 at a cost of $2.88 but their main goal will be to open this hospital as soon as possible.

Eby said that this hospital will be equipped with modern facilities and will have 168 more beds to be used for surgery and cancer treatment.

The premier said it would be the first fully electric hospital in Canada.
