ST Engineering, Siemens Mobility consortium snags $180m rail lines contract

The contract is worth $180m.

ST Engineering and Siemens Mobility Consortium announced that they were awarded a $180m contract focusing on the communications system for Singapore’s rail news.

The two companies will work on the modernisation and renewal of the comms systems for Singapore’s North-South, East-West Lines, and Bukit Panjang LRT. 

Chew Men Leong, President of Urban Solutions at ST Engineering, sees this as an opportunity to upgrade Singapore’s rail network. 

“The NSEWL and BPLRT are the most heavily utilised lines in Singapore’s rail network. Collectively with our partner, we provide deep technical and domain expertise to ensure zero disruption while deploying the new communications systems to the existing systems and train services.”

The new system is expected to be fully operational in 2029.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
