A joint venture between Black & Veatch and AECOM has been selected by PUB, Singapore’s national water agency, to provide engineering services for Phase 2 of the Deep Tunnel Sewerage System (DTSS).
DTSS Phase 2 will extend DTSS to the western side of Singapore through a 30 km-long South Tunnel, nearly 70 km of link sewers, the Tuas Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) and an estimated 12 km-long deep-sea outfall. The entire DTSS will result in a 50-percent reduction in land taken by used-water infrastructure with three centralized collection and treatment points: Changi WRP in the east; Kranji WRP in the north; and Tuas WRP in the west. A NEWater factory will be integrated with the Tuas WRP and contribute to Singapore’s long-term goal of increasing NEWater production to meet up to 55 percent of its total water demand.
