PITTSBURGH — UPMC East is spending $22 million to double the size of its emergency department in Monroeville.

Construction began Monday on the renovations, which will add 14,000 square feet of space to the ED. That comes to 10 new observation rooms and 10 new private exam rooms that will be increased to the current number of 20. It will also have more room for clinical engineering, sterile processing and information technology, UPMC said.

The work is to be completed in July 2020.
