👷🏽‍♀️ Depending on the terrain and location, different types of Tunnel Boring Machines (#TBM) are deployed for our underground projects.

#DidYouKnow that a new rectangular TBM was used for the first time in the construction of #TEL3 Havelock station instead of the conventional circular one? #EngineeringWOW 🏗💪🏽

👀 Check out how the RTBM allowed us to expedite the construction of a pedestrian underpass connecting to Havelock station with fewer disamenities to residents and other stakeholders in the area! 🤝

Check out how our first ever, large diameter tunnel boring machine (#TBM) is assembled! 🤩

This TBM will be used in the construction of a two-track tunnel between the Cross Island Line (#CRL) Aviation Park and Loyang stations. 🚇🚧🚇

#FunFact With this TBM, our tunnelling works will be a lot more efficient – we can now construct a tunnel large enough to accommodate two rail tracks instead to having tunnel twice like we usually do! 💪
