Napier - Preparations to Divert

Canal diversion works have been on going at the Napier site for the past 2 months. The realigned canal will be rerouted towards the south, away from the Singapore Botanic Gardens. Preparatory work for the first traffic diversion - which will run parallel to the realigned canal, have also commenced and should be implemented by the end of this quarter. Piling works continue on Gleneagles side.

It is noteworthy that the TBM from the unrelated SPPA EW2 transmission cable tunnel project has reached the west end of the T217 site and will spend the next month or 2 tunnelling down Holland/Napier Road, perpendicularly beneath the proposed Napier station box. This is one of 3 sites whereby the TEL & cable tunnel project boundaries interface - the other 2 being Upper Thomson and Springleaf.
