LTA awards $1.2 billion in contracts for Tuas Road Viaduct Phase 2
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) announced on 30 September 2026 that it has awarded three civil contracts worth about $1.2 billion in total to build Phase 2 of the Tuas Road Viaduct (TRV2). The project is meant to improve road access to Tuas Port and support development in Tuas South.
The three packages cover viaducts along Pioneer Road, Tuas South Avenue 3 and Tuas South Boulevard. The Pioneer Road viaduct went to Hwa Seng Builder for $381.6 million, the Tuas South Avenue 3 viaduct to the Singapore branch of China Communications Construction Company for $430.3 million, and the Tuas South Boulevard viaduct to China Harbour (Singapore) Engineering for $404.4 million.
Construction is due to start in early 2027, with sections completed progressively from 2032.
LTA noted the contractors’ track records on other major projects. Hwa Seng Builder has worked on the viaduct linking the Tampines Expressway to the Pan-Island Expressway and is building the Loyang Viaduct, while China Communications Construction Company is involved in Jurong Region Line works and the Johor Bahru–Singapore RTS Link.
The three contracts together account for the full value of about $1.2 billion announced by LTA, with each package covering one road corridor in the Tuas South area.
Why it matters for fleets: Tuas is where much of Singapore’s container, logistics and heavy industrial traffic is heading as port operations consolidate there. Hauliers, prime mover operators and lorry fleets serving the western industrial estates are the main users of these roads. Once complete, the viaducts should give through-traffic a way over busy junctions in Tuas South.
In the shorter term, operators should plan for several years of works along Pioneer Road and the Tuas South roads from 2027, which may bring lane closures, diversions and slower trips for heavy vehicles. Companies that schedule port runs or deliveries in the area may want to build extra time into routes once works begin, and watch LTA traffic advisories.
