China : CAG awards S$985m construction contract to TAKENAKA CORPORATION
Publish Date : 28-Dec-2013
Takenaka Corporation has secured a S$985-million contract from Changi Airport Group (CAG) for the construction of Changi Airport's Terminal 4 (T4). The project is supposed to start in 2014 and completed in 2017.
CAG's Chief Executive Officer Lee Seow Hiang stated: "There were very competitive bids from local and international companies with vast experience in the construction of major infrastructure projects. The past few months have seen an intensive process for the CAG team, as it went through several rounds of evaluation. Takenaka Corporation delivered the best overall proposal, which included an innovative construction methodology."
The contract includes the construction and development of a new passenger terminal building, which will have capacity of 16 million passenger movements per year, along with the construction of a multi-storey car park, an open-air car park with up to 1,500 parking spaces, and a two-storey holding area for taxis to pick up arriving passengers.
The contract also includes the development of a bridge enabling buses and other airside vehicles to move from T4 to remote aircraft stands being built at a land plot south of Terminal 3, building of 68-metre high Ramp Control Tower to examine and handle aircraft movements around T4.
Apart from this the contract also covers road improvement works, including a new road to funnel outgoing traffic directly from T4 onto East Coast Parkway.
Five companies had submitted their proposals for this contract. Takenaka Corporation won this contract, who had previously been involved in the upgrading of Changi Airport's Terminal 2 in 2006, and the upgrading of Terminal 1 in 2012.
