ST Engineering wins $840m Taiwan MRT line contract

The eight-year project begins in Q4.

ST Engineering’s Urban Solutions business secured an $840m turnkey rail services contract for Taiwan’s Taoyuan MRT Brown Line.

Under the contract, the group will lead project management and systems integration and provide supervisory control and data acquisition, communications, automatic fare collection, and platform screen door systems.

In addition, it will oversee the integration and delivery of the signalling system, track works, and civil works for the bulk substation building.

The 11.38-kilometre Brown Line will have seven stations and connect Taoyuan City with the Greater Taipei area.

Project execution will begin in the fourth quarter of the year and will be delivered over eight years.

The contract was awarded by the Taoyuan City Government to a consortium comprising ST Engineering and Hyundai Rotem, who will supply the rolling stock and power system.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
