Cootamundra Ambulance Station

Construction of the new Cootamundra Ambulance Station, delivered as part of the NSW Government’s $122 million Rural Ambulance Infrastructure Reconfiguration (RAIR) program, has been completed ahead of schedule.

Works on the new station are now finished and NSW Ambulance is undertaking operational commissioning – testing systems and installing final fit-out items before the station ‘goes-live’ later this year.

The new station, co-located adjacent to the Cootamundra Hospital, will enable local NSW Ambulance paramedics to better meet the current and future demand for emergency medical care in Cootamundra and surrounds.

Designed with input from local paramedics, the purpose-built Cootamundra Ambulance Station will deliver a better working environment for paramedics.

The station has also been designed with energy efficiency in mind and features solar panels as part of the build, aiming to improve energy efficiency by generating electricity from an environmental-friendly power source.

The new Cootamundra ambulance station includes:

• Internal parking for up to four emergency ambulance vehicles
• Administration and office areas
• Staff amenities
• Logistics and storage areas
• Relief accommodation
• Staff parking
• External wash bay
