3 companies win $1.2b contracts for Tuas Road Viaduct extension; works to begin in early 2027
It will extend the existing Tuas Road viaduct at both its western and eastern ends.
Three companies have been awarded contracts worth $1.2 billion to build an extension of the Tuas Road Viaduct in Singapore, with construction set to begin in early 2027 and complete by 2032. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) awarded the contracts to Hwa Seng Builder, China Communications Construction Company, and China Harbour (Singapore) Engineering Company.
The new viaduct will provide a direct link to Tuas Port and improve traffic flow by bypassing 18 surface-level junctions, benefiting both industrial developments in Tuas South and Singapore's container port activities. During construction, traffic realignments and lane closures will be implemented progressively, with measures taken to minimize inconvenience to commuters and businesses.
