OKP unit wins $165.3m LTA contract for bridge accessibility upgrades

The project covers lift installations and commuter improvements at 30 overhead crossings.

OKP Holdings' subsidiary has been awarded a $165.3m contract by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) to carry out commuter infrastructure works at pedestrian overhead bridges across Singapore.

The contract, which began on 25 May, was awarded to the group’s wholly owned subsidiary, Or Kim Peow Contractors. It will run for 48 months.

Works under the project include the design and construction of lift shafts at 30 existing pedestrian overhead bridges around Singapore.

The contract also covers related infrastructure such as lift lobbies, link bridges, covered linkways, and roof covers.

Additional works include upgrades at selected pedestrian overhead bridges, modifications to existing lift shafts, and the construction of a new covered pedestrian overhead bridge with lift access and connecting covered linkways across the Tampines Expressway.

The latest award follows OKP’s $87.3m LTA contract secured in February for commuter infrastructure works along the Jurong Region Line.

OKP said its net construction order book increased to $760.7m following the contract award, with projects scheduled through 2031.

Managing director Or Toh Wat said the group will continue supporting Singapore’s transport infrastructure development through the latest project, which includes accessibility improvements for commuters and pedestrians.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
