VINCI Construction is awarded the design-build Contract for the Extension of Ang Mo Kio Metro Station in Singapore

• A new metro station on the Cross Island Line (Line 8) and the associated tunnels • A €400 million (S$644 million) contract • A technological challenge in a very tight urban environment

Bachy Soletanche Singapore, subsidiary of VINCI Construction, in a joint-venture with Gammon Construction and Engineering, has been awarded the design-build contract for the extension of Ang Mo Kio metro station and the associated tunnels.

This station will connect the new Cross Island Line (CRL) and the existing North–South Line (NSL).

This project is part of the Cross Island Line Phase 1 (CRL1). The CRL is the eighth line in Singapore’s mass rapid transit system (MRT). This Phase will be 29 km long and have 12 stations, and in due course simplify travel as well as connections between the various rail lines reaching some 100,000 households. This new line will improve access to industrial areas, leisure parks and new business hubs in the city.

The contract was awarded by Singapore’s Land Transport Authority and amounts to €400 million (S$644 million). It covers construction of:

• 1 underground station and tunnels
• 2 underground pedestrian passages
• Addition and alteration (A&A) of the existing Ang Mo Kio station.

Works are expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2021 and the station is due to open in 2030.

Bachy Soletanche Singapore, which has been pioneering geotechnical and foundation engineering solutions for more than 50 years, will also team up with Soletanche Bachy International and Bessac, a subsidiary of Soletanche Bachy, specialises in tunnels and microtunnels.

Building this new station in a tight urban environment, with challenging ground conditions, will require unique technical expertise. To reduce vibration and control the excavation, the consortium will use innovative equipment
