SMART WINS INTERNATIONAL AWARD AT BRITISH CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY AWARDS
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 13 (Bernama) -- Stormwater Management And Road Tunnel
(SMART) has won the "International Award" category in the prestigious British
Construction Industry Awards (BCIA) 2008 for excellence in innovation and
engineering.
In a statement, Gamuda Bhd said the BCIA is the most influential awards
programme in the industry and is often regarded as the 'Oscar' for construction.
It said SMART win was based on its innovative engineering solution that
solved two of Kuala Lumpur's long standing problems, namely the flooding in the
city centre caused by overflowing rivers, and traffic congestion in the south
of the city.
SMART, which was completed in June 2007, was incepted by a 50-50 joint
venture between MMC Corporation Bhd and Gamuda Bhd, and was implemented under
the close supervision of the government.
