Former Cadbury site to be chockablock with Dunedin's new hospital
A nine-storey inpatient block for Dunedin's new hospital will be built on the city's former Cadbury factory site.
The factory will be demolished, apart from a facade on the old dairy block, to make way for the new main inpatient facility.
The $1.4 billion rebuild of Dunedin's current ageing facility is one of the largest infrastructure projects in New Zealand, with more than 1000 workers expected to work on the project.
The new hospital is expected to be completed in November 2028, but the Government announced in December that it would fast-track the outpatient and day surgery building so both could be finished by November 2024.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
