Yongnam Holdings clinches 4th Marina Coastal Expressway contract

Engineering and steel contractor Yong Nam has been awarded the contract for Marina Coastal Expressway, a deal worth S$21.5 million.

The dual five-lane, 5km long expressway will be a strategic underground east-west transport linkbetween three major expressways, catering to the anticipated increase in traffic volume generated by the high-density developments in the Marina Bay area.

Building the structure will be a complex feat, according to a release to the media by Yongnam, as part of the expressway will run underneath the seabed just 150 metres away from the Marina Barrage, which needs to be opened periodically to allow water to flow out during heavy rain.

This is the 4^th contract the company has since secured for the expressway, and will total S$283 million worth of contracts. Yongnam will support the main contractor, Samsung C&T Corporation, through the installation and removal of temporary steel strutting and waling works for the wide and deep tunnel excavation. The Contract is targeted for completion by September 2012.

The company’s other infrastructural projects include the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort and the SkyPark that will sit atop the Marina Bay Sands’ IR Hotel Towers.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
