This involved the removal of a buried seawall at Marina Bay South. Gammon subsidiary Lambeth came up with a design solution, which ingeniously utilized the forces of natural seawater as a stabilizing component during the excavation. The project was also engineered to re-use 20,000 tons of steel, thereby saving significant material costs and time. The successful excavation of the Mole led to Gammon being awarded the second phase of the even bigger ‘Mole 2’ project.

The technique was inexpensive, highly productive on site, and environmentally friendly. The method has subsequently become the blueprint for other similar public housing development projects in Hong Kong. Guardian Singapore pharmacists are helping to raise the standards of healthcare in the community. Performance 21
