[HOCHTIEF AG - 19.02.2014] Leighton awarded contract for Central-Wanchai Bypass

Leighton Asia, India and Offshore has secured a contract worth A$453 million to construct the tunnel buildings, systems and fitting out works associated with the Central - Wanchai Bypass (CWB) tunnel in Hong Kong.
This is the third project to be awarded to Leighton on the Central - Wanchai Bypass (CWB) project by the HKSARs Highways Department, following the award of the 2010 contract for the construction of the Central Interchange and the Central Reclamation Phase III in 2009.
The contract requires Leighton to install extensive specialist electrical and mechanical (E
M) works, including route-wide tunnel E
M works, traffic control and surveillance systems, road tunnel wall cladding works, the tunnel roof thermal barrier and the tunnel road pavement construction for the complete tunnel from Central to North Point. It also includes the construction and fit out of ventilation buildings and an administration building.
Ian Edwards, Managing Director of Leighton Asia, India and Offshore said: "We are extremely pleased to be awarded this significant contract by Hong Kongs Highways Department. Our track record for winning repeat business demonstrates the level of confidence clients have in Leighton Asia, India and Offshores ability to deliver high quality infrastructure projects.
Leighton Holdings Chief Executive Officer, Mr Hamish Tyrwhitt, said: "This award fits with our strategy of continuing to expand our infrastructure footprint throughout Asia.
The Central to Wanchai Bypass is an essential strategic East-West highway route for traffic between the Central Business District and the population centre in the Eastern part of Hong Kong Island. Upon its completion, the traffic will bypass the heavily congested existing roads along Hong Kong Islands north shore Wanchai and Causeway Bay area, further enhancing the quality of life for residents.
Contract works will start immediately and are scheduled for completion by 2018.
