The request for proposals has closed for the redevelopment of Oak Valley Health's Uxbridge Hospital, Infrastructure Ontario says. The proposals closed on Monday, Nov. 10, 2026, the next step in a project to transform, modernize and expand the Uxbridge site.

The new hospital site will be approximately 140,000 square feet and will add more patient beds and expand key services such as ambulatory care and diagnostic imaging, Infrastructure Ontario says. Clinical areas in the redevelopment will include ambulatory services, emergency services, inpatient services, diagnostic imaging and cardiorespiratory services, an inpatient laboratory and an inpatient pharmacy.

Diamond Schmitt is the architect of record for the project, which is being delivered using a design-bid-build model. The request for qualifications was released Dec. 3, 2025, short-listed bidders were selected May 13, 2026, and the request for proposals was issued June 19, 2026. A winning bidder and construction dates have not yet been announced.

Uxbridge Hospital, originally opened in 1959, is currently a 20-bed community hospital offering diagnostic and emergency services, Infrastructure Ontario says. Oak Valley Health serves residents of south-east York Region and west Durham Region through its Uxbridge and Markham Stouffville hospitals.
