Client: Land Transport Authority (LTA)
Main Contractor: Hwa Seng Builder Pte Ltd
Project Details:
The Land Transport Authority has awarded a contract to Messrs. Hwa Seng Builder Private Limited for the expansion of KPE/TPE interchange and a new link road to Punggol Central.
This is to alleviate the traffic congestion at TPE between Punggol Way and KPE, and the existing access points of Punggol Town.
Works include the construction of three new vehicular bridges crossing Sungei Serangoon and Sungei Blukar, a new flyover across TPE, roadways on former Lorong Halus landfill along with other associated ramps and drainage works.
Green Cosmos undertake the fabrication of thick smooth high density polyethylene (“HDPE”) geomembrane liner, 4.0mm and 7.0mm thickness, to form circular HDPE sleeves for wrap around bored piles of various diameters ranging from 700mm dia. up to 1500mm dia.
These fabricated circular HDPE sleeves serve to protect bored piles sited within the existing landfill against leachates attack and other corrosive elements.
Quantum of fabricated HDPE sleeves supplied:
- Bored Piles 700mm dia. to 900mm dia. – 12,500m using 4.0mm thick HDPE liner
- Bored Piles 1000mm dia. to 150mm dia. – 662m using 7.0mm thick HDPE liner
