The Sorigué group through its company Acsa has built a new hospital in the town of Alcañiz in Teruel, Aragon, for the Aragon Health Service Department. 

The project has been divided into two stages. The first consisted of developing the site and the second of constructing the building. The group’s Infrastructure and Materials and Building divisions worked together on this project alongside Aragonesa de Obras Civiles.  

The new hospital will provide care for 72,290 people from 85 municipalities and become the referral hospital for the county.  

Alcañiz includes the health areas of Alcañiz, Alcorisa, Andorra, Calaceite, Cantavieja, Caspe, Híjar, Maella, Mas de las Matas, Muniesa and Valderrobres, towns that for almost two decades have been calling for a comprehensive health complex including A&E, surgical and obstetric services plus outpatient visits and inpatient care.  

Four-storey building  

The project includes two large implementation blocks: firstly, the foundations and concrete frame, and secondly, the earthworks. The first stage included the earthing network, underground drainage and waterproofing retaining walls.  

Subsequently, backfilling and the heliport were completed as part of the site’s development. In total, an area of 136,123 m2 has been worked on, split into 92,943 m2 for health facilities and 43,180 m2 for roads.
