The 18-month contract, which commenced on Oct 31 and is expected to be completed by April 30, 2025, will see Eng Lam Contractors involved in the improvement and upkeep of road and cycling paths.
“We feel encouraged to have secured this contract from LTA which is an endorsement of our core competency and capabilities, and we are committed to the smooth delivery of this project,” says group managing director Or Toh Wat.
