$357.5m extension of North-South line to Marina South
Contract awarded to Samsung C&T Corp
THE Land Transport Authority (LTA) said yesterday that it has awarded a $357.5 million contract to Samsung C&T Corporation for North-South Line extension civil works.
The contract covers the design and construction of an additional station and associated tunnels at Marina South.
Construction is scheduled to start this month and is slated for completion by 2014.
LTA said that the one km underground extension is an extension of the existing North-South Line that runs south from the overrun tunnels after Marina Bay station into the Marina South area.
When completed, the extension will provide an additional transport choice to Marina South Pier and upcoming developments in the area, such as the new cruise terminal and Gardens by the Bay.
Samsung C&T Corporation is a South Korean company with extensive construction experience in Singapore. It is involved in the design and construction of Cross Street Station as part of the Downtown Line Stage 1 and the design and construction of a section of the Marina Coastal Expressway.
The Marina Coastal Expressway, scheduled for completion in 2013, is expected to be Singapore's most expensive expressway. So far, the LTA has awarded $4 billion worth of contracts for the project, which involves undersea construction.
