SINGAPORE - The Land Transport Authority (LTA) on 30th September 2022, awarded the contract for the design & construction of Riviera station and associated tunnels to a joint venture of Taisei & China State Construction Engineering. The contract, P103, includes the construction of a large diameter single bored tube tunnel from Elias to Punggol station, a length of approximately 4.3km. The LTA has assured the public that steps will be taken to ensure that works are done with safety at the forefront.

Do stay tuned as we bring further updates once construction commences next year.
