A new Cardiac Unit will be built on the site of the University Clinic in Magdeburg. In addition, the extension of the existing Central Accident and Emergency (A&E) Unit (Building 60a) is planned.

The grounds of the Otto-von-Guericke-University are situated on the Leipziger Straße in the centre of Magdeburg, and, as a collection of buildings of historic importance, are protected as listed buildings. The associated special requirements will be taken into account by igr in the project planning.

As commissioned by the BLSA (Saxony-Anhalt state building and property management agency), igr is planning the engineering structures and traffic facilities for the external technical development as well as access road positioning for the A&E unit, Building 60a, and the Cardiac Unit (Building 60c) construction site. As one of the engineering structures, igr is planning an underground passageway between the Cardiac Unit (Building 60c) and the A&E Unit (Building 60a), which is intended for an automatic goods transport system as well as for patient transfer.

In the course of the planning process other locations will be considered, and a multi-disciplinary economic efficiency study will be undertaken.
