Summary |
"Singapore is one of the most vibrant and colourful cities on the planet. And one of the busiest. With a permanent population of 4.5 million and a further 10 million visitors a year, the streets daily swarm with people, the roads are choked with cars, buses and bicycles and the trains are packed. Gridlock beckons. In a bid to avoid transport meltdown, the government has embarked on a multi-billion-dollar project to construct the most sophisticated underground railway in the world. The project is hugely challenging. A complete, circular tunnel must be excavated beneath the city, while allowing life above to continue with minimum disruption. " -- Discovery Channel website |
