LTA appoints Siemens Mobility to power 8th MRT system

The contract is worth approximately $400m (€270m).

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) appointed Siemens Mobility (SMPL) for the Cross Island Line (CRL) project, the country’s eighth Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) System.

The contract is worth approximately $400m SMPL will also lead a consortium along with Concord Corporation for the design, supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of the power supply.

"Our power supply solutions and signalling systems for the CRL will enable LTA to connect the physical rail infrastructure with the digital world, gaining more value through integrated digital technologies. This will optimise lifecycle costs and provide a safe and reliable commute for CRL passengers,” said Michel Obadia, CEO of Siemens Mobility Singapore and Asia-Pacific.

The CRL will be fully automated and driverless-ready.

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.
