Singapore awards contracts for elevated rail line

Singapore’s urban transport infrastructure moved toward further expansion in February with the awarding of three contracts for the construction of four stations on the elevated Jurong Region Line (JRL) worth US$429 million.

The Singapore Land Transport Authority (LTA) awarded the largest of the contracts worth US$163m to Sembcorp Design and Construction, a subsidiary of Singaporean construction group Chip Eng Seng to build two stations and two viaducts over 1.3km.

Korean engineer Daelim won the bid to design and build the Jurong East station and a 500m viaduct for a price of US$142m.

The JRL is a 24km elevated rail line connecting the north-west and western areas of the city-state which will eventually have 24 stations when complete in 2027.
