About 17 months after the official groundbreaking, the skeleton of the facility is well underway. Six large cranes continue to tower over the eight-storey building, which at the moment, is devoid of exterior walls. The site is a beehive of activity as more than 500 construction workers install piping, deliver supplies and examine blueprints to make sure that when the hospital opens in December 2015 everything runs like clockwork. Halton Healthcare Services (HHS) President and CEO John Oliver said the project is currently on budget and about six weeks ahead of schedule. That said, there is still much to be done. "I think they're done about 25 per cent of the construction schedule," said Oliver. "The massive structure is now here. The real time is finishing it out, doing all the interiors, bringing that up to the standard we want and finishing up the rooms." Oliver said by late summer or early fall, the facility will stop looking like a construction project as walls will be built and the building's exterior will begin to take shape.
