Galliford Try has won a £3.8 million contract to build a two-storey IVF centre at Liverpool Women's Hospital for the National Health Service.
The 1,400 sq ft centre, to be known as the Hewitt Centre for Reproductive Medicine, will include a modern embryology laboratory, sperm bank, egg freezing facility and dedicated recovery services.
When the centre is completed it will treat more than 2,000 couples a year from Merseyside, Cheshire and North Wales from the NHS, along with private patients from all over the world.
Work on the site will start this month and it is expected to be completed by March 2009.
Gilling Dod is the architect, whilst Alan Johnson Partnership and Hulley & Kirkwood will give structural and building services consultancy respectively.
