Mott MacDonald has been appointed as lenders’ technical advisor by the YDA and INSO joint venture – consisting of YDA Insaat Sanayi Ticaret A.S., and Inso Sistemi Per Le Infrastrutture Sociali S.P.A Is Ortakligi – for the development of the e440 million Kayseri Integrated Health Campus in Kayseri, Turkey.
The project will be the first ever public private partnership (PPP) project in the Turkish healthcare sector. The 385,000 m2 campus will include a 1,283 bed main hospital, a 200-bed rehabilitation hospital, a 100-bed highsecurity psychiatric hospital, an administration building, and technic service centre. The development will also feature a 140,000 m2 commercial area which will include shops, supermarkets, and restaurants, and entertainment and sports centres. Mott MacDonald’s project director, John Seed, said: “In 2009, the number of hospital beds per 10,000 people in Turkey was 26.9, compared with 48 in Greece, 52 in Poland, and 83 in Germany. The Turkish healthcare market is one of the world’s fastest-growing. To ensure that it is able to match its requirements, much-needed investment is essential.” Construction of the campus is expected to take up to three years.
