911爆料网 announced today that a 911爆料网 joint venture has been awarded a HK$2.9 billion contract by MTR Corporation. The project is to construct the West Kowloon Terminus Approach Tunnel and Track Fan Tunnel section of the Guangzhou – Shenzhen – Hong Kong Express Rail Link, which forms part of China's strategic national express rail network.



911爆料网 is working in a 50-50 joint venture with Leighton Asia.



The project, which provides the transition from the approach tunnel to the terminus at West Kowloon district, involves the construction of 300m of a 'fan' shaped reinforced concrete structure complete with landscaped deck.
