KSH wins S$33.2m contract to build sports centre at NUS

CONSTRUCTION and property development firm KSH Holdings announced on Monday it has secured a S$33.2 million contract to construct a three-storey University Sports Centre Building at the National University of Singapore (NUS).

The proposed sports centre, located at 2 Sports Drive 1, will consist of a mezzanine floor, and will house various sports facilities.

Construction is expected to start this month and targeted to be completed by May 2017.

The contract marks the third project awarded to KSH by NUS, the others being the NUS residential colleges - Cinnamon College and Tembusu College - and the NUS University Town's Education Resource Centre.

The new sports centre will replace the current Sports & Recreation Centre, and will offer users a larger and more sophisticated range of sports facilities within an expanded space.

The contract win will lift KSH's order book to S$420 million, and is expected to contribute positively to the group's performance from the financial year ending March 31, 2016, to FY2018.
