Aecom Overseeing Malaysia Rail Link

US engineering firm Aecom has been selected by the China Communications Construction Company (CCCC) to supervise the construction sites on the USD13bn East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project in Malaysia.

In a press release, Aecom said it would be looking after all stations, viaducts, tunnels and depots on the project, which involves building an electrified standard-gauge line from Port Klang, in the southeast of the Malaysian peninsula, via Kuala Lumpur to the town of Pengkalan Kubor on the northeastern border with Thailand.

The ECRL is part of Malaysia’s national transport plan. Construction began in August last year and is scheduled for completion by 2024. When complete, it will connect Malaysia’s main east coast cities to the nation’s main rail network.

The 688km line is expected to carry 5.4 million passengers by 2030. Trains will have a top speed of 160km/h.
