PETALING JAYA: Syarikat Prasarana Negara Bhd hopes to award all LRT Line Extension contracts by the first half of 2012.
Group director for project development Zulkifli Mohd Yusoff said the entire project consisting of the Kelana Jaya line and the Ampang line had between 40 and 50 contracts.
To date, about 80% to 90% had been awarded while only two stations and the main depot for the Ampang line were still undergoing the process of tendering, he told reporters here yesterday.
According to Zulkifli, the total value of contracts that have been awarded for both lines currently stood at RM4.5bil.
For the supply of 20 trains for the Ampang line, estimated to be worth RM1bil, the company was evaluating seven supply submissions, Zulkifli said.
The other system contract yet to be awarded was for electrical and mechanical system works, he said.
“The system side involves installing power supply, track work, signalling and so on.
