AI Article Summary

Build Nova Scotia announced the completion of the blasting phase at the QEII Halifax Infirmary construction site for the new acute care tower. The project now moves to mechanically breaking rocks near the existing hospital, which is a noisy but necessary step. The new tower, on track to open in 2031, will offer expanded facilities such as 216 beds, a larger emergency department, and advanced diagnostic units. The project is part of the QEII Health Sciences Centre Redevelopment, ranked as one of Canada's top infrastructure projects.
