Fresh look coming for Alfred Retail precinct
An exciting Alfred Retail Improvement Project is now underway.
Coming in 2024, the reimagined main entrance and retail precinct will become a contemporary, light filled, space.
It will also provide an improved experience for patients, visitors and staff to pass through or sit and enjoy.
Features will include:
- More natural light
- A modernised retail environment
- More indoor and outdoor seating
Stay tuned to this page for further updates as works progress.
Works update
From Wednesday 6 March – Wednesday 27 March, access to the Outpatient Pharmacy, Alf’s Café, and General Store will only be via Main Entrance / Reception side of The Alfred.
Due to works on the new Retail Precinct, access from the corridor between the General Store and Main Ward Block side will be closed.
Signage will be in place to provide guidance for patients, visitors and staff.
The General Store will open from its new site – just on the opposite side of the corridor it is currently located – from late April.
It will continue to offer a wide range products and services, including post office facilities with post office boxes.
There will be a short period when the General Store will be closed so it can move to its new location.
