Aecom wins TM-CLKL

Aecom has been awarded a USD 148M consultancy contract for the Tuen Mun-Chek Lap Kok Link (TM-CLKL). The link forms part of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao bridge-tunnel (HKZMB) megaproject.

The contract covered detailed design, supervision, reference design and contract administrative responsibilities. An Aecom spokesman said, “[The link] will provide the most direct route between Hong Kong’s Northwest New Territories, the Hong Kong Boundary Crossing Facilities of the HZMB, the Hong Kong International Airport and Lantau Island.

“The project works comprise a dual two-lane highway approximately 6-miles long, of which 3 miles are in the form of a sub-sea tunnel, and is expected to be completed during 2017.”

Aecom chairman and CEO John Dionisio added, “This is the second design and construction consultancy that we have won for Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge related projects.

“We are honored to partner with Hong Kong’s Highways Department to play a key role in its continuing development of Hong Kong’s transportation infrastructure.”
