Mechanical and electrical contractors selected for UHNBC Acute Care Tower

Northern Health says the preferred mechanical and electrical non-owner participants (NOPs) for the UHNBC Acute Care Tower project have been selected; PML Professional Mechanical Ltd. and Houle Electric.

According to Northern Health, this milestone marks the full formation of the alliance for the UHNBC Acute Care Tower.

“This is a significant step for the UHNBC Acute Care Tower project and for patients and families across Northern B.C.,” said Minister of Health Josie Osborne.

“With the NOPs now selected, we’re moving closer to providing the timely, high-quality health care services that communities throughout the North deserve and rely on.”

“The formation of the full alliance marks an exciting step forward for the UHNBC Acute Care Tower project,” said Northern Health Board Chair Colleen Nyce.

“This collaborative approach ensures that every partner is working together from the very beginning to deliver a facility that meets the needs of patients and families across Northern B.C. We are proud to see this project advancing and look forward to the positive impact it will have on health care in our region for decades to come.”

Construction on the tower is expected to start in fall 2026, with an anticipated opening for patients in 2031.
