A blood transfusion station will be built in St. Petersburg for almost 8 billion rubles.

The contractor will receive 3.48 million rubles in 2025, 245.6 million rubles in 2026, and 822.178 million rubles in 2027. The majority of the tranche—6.856 billion rubles—will be allocated in 2028.
The facility will be located on Oleg Dundich Street. The site allocated for the station includes the unfinished buildings of a 600-bed infectious diseases hospital, as well as an administrative and amenity building and a 100-bed treatment building. The design allows for the use of the structures from these buildings.
According to the design documentation, the contractor is required to construct a five-story blood transfusion station and a checkpoint. The basement will house staff quarters, a medical records archive, storage facilities for medical supplies, storage rooms, Class G medical waste storage facilities, and other auxiliary facilities.
The station's ground floor will house, among other facilities, a donor recruitment department—donor reception and certification offices, staff quarters, and an archive. It will also house a central sterilization unit, a waste management area, a mobile blood collection unit, a nine-space vehicle storage facility, a dispatch center with a blood component inventory management center, and a block of accommodations for service and ambulance drivers.
The second floor will house doctors' offices, donor lounges, and labs for preliminary donor screening, three donation procedure rooms with donor locks, and a room for handling blood, plasma, and their components. According to the design, the third floor will house the immunology department, the donor blood safety monitoring department, the centralized diagnostic lab, and the laboratory diagnostics department.
On the fourth floor, a long-term plasma storage unit with refrigeration units will be set up, while on the fifth floor, administrative offices for staff and a conference hall with 226 seats will be located.
In early September 2025, the St. Petersburg Capital Construction and Reconstruction Fund began searching for a contractor to renovate the buildings of St. Luke's Clinical Hospital. Up to 3.009 billion rubles were planned to be allocated from the regional budget for this purpose. The stated goal of the medical facility's renovation was to create "optimal and effective functional, technological, structural, and engineering solutions" to bring it up to modern standards of medical care.
Only one bid was submitted for the auction, which the commission rejected due to identified violations. As a result, the contract was not awarded.
