LTA halts TPE-PIE Changi viaduct construction

It has mutually agreed with the developer to end their contract.

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) and Or Kim Peow Contractors (OKP) have mutually agreed to terminate the contract to construct the TPE-PIE Changi viaduct.

According to an announcement, LTA will call a new replacement tender later this month, and plans to award this contract by the fourth quarter of 2018. The indicative completion date for this project is the first half of 2022.

“The replacement contractor will be responsible for completing the construction of the viaduct, including the demolition of any structures deemed unsafe. In the interim, the site will be maintained by LTA’s term contractor until the replacement contractor is appointed,” LTA said.

LTA said it will continue to work closely with its contractors to ensure that they comply with workplace safety and health requirements.
