Daewoo E&C said its Singapore urban rail CR108 project won three safety awards at the 2026 ASAC, an awards convention run by Singapore's Land Transport Authority. The awards cover construction safety, accident-free performance and safety improvement, and the company said the site has gone 2,000 days and 8 million hours without an accident. The project, a joint venture with Donga Geol building the Pasir Ris interchange station and connecting tunnels, is due for completion in December 2030.

Daewoo E&C said on Oct 6 that its Singapore urban rail project, CR108, won three safety awards at the 2026 ASAC run by Singapore's Land Transport Authority, an announcement carried by Yonhap, Chosun Ilbo, Newsis, Maeil Business, Seoul Economic Daily and Dong-A Ilbo. Chosun Ilbo, Maeil Business and Seoul Economic Daily said the ceremony was held on Sept 22. [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]
The three awards were the Construction Safety Merit Award, the Accident-Free Recognition Award and the Most Improved Contractor Award, according to Yonhap, Maeil Business and Seoul Economic Daily. ASAC has been run by the Land Transport Authority since 1999 and recognises safety, health and environment work; this year 63 institutions received 90 awards across 18 categories, the outlets reported. [ 1 , 5 , 6 ]
CR108 covers the design and construction of the Pasir Ris interchange station and connecting tunnels in eastern Singapore. It is being carried out jointly by Daewoo E&C and Donga Geol, began in 2021 and is scheduled for completion in December 2030. The company said the site has recorded 2,000 days and 8 million hours without an accident. [ 1 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]
Maeil Business and Seoul Economic Daily reported that Chan&Chan Engineering, a partner on the traffic detour road, also received a Subcontractor's Safety Recognition Award, bringing the project to four awards in total. Maeil Business and Dong-A Ilbo said that, including subcontractors, this was the most awards for a single project in Singapore this year, including projects run by other Korean companies — a comparison the company gave and which no source independently confirms. [ 5 , 6 , 7 ]
The company said it has applied its own safety culture programme, CLEAR, on site, through toolbox meetings for two-way communication, stronger safety leadership by supervisors and focused management of high-risk work. Seoul Economic Daily reported that Daewoo E&C also deployed a self-developed noise-reduction device for ventilation fans used in deep excavation work, called “Noise Hippo”, which it said won an Industrial Innovation Excellence Award at the WSH Asia Awards 2026 on Sept 10. [ 1 , 5 , 6 ]
A Daewoo E&C official said the project had “made site-centred safety culture and prevention of serious accidents a top priority from the start”, with systematic health, safety and environment management, and said the company would keep addressing risks at the source through technical innovation and continue embedding CLEAR, according to Yonhap, Maeil Business and Seoul Economic Daily. [ 1 , 5 , 6 ]
Seoul Economic Daily said the ASAC recognition amounts to official acknowledgement by the client, the Land Transport Authority, of the site's safety work. Yonhap and Maeil Business did not report any independent verification of the company's figures or comparisons. [ 1 , 5 , 6 ]
Почему это важно
The awards are formal recognition from the project's client, Singapore's Land Transport Authority, of the joint venture's site safety record. For the contractor, the announcement is a public endorsement of its overseas safety management as work on the line continues toward a December 2030 completion. Much of the coverage relays the company's own account, so the significance beyond the award facts rests mainly on its statements.

Пока неясно
- The claim that the project's four awards, including the subcontractor's, were the most of any project in Singapore this year. Stated by several outlets but attributed to the company, with no independent ranking published in the documents.
- Details of the award ceremony itself, such as its time or venue. The documents give the Sept 22 date but no time or location.
- Whether the Newsis coverage adds any independent reporting on the awards. The Newsis document's article text is about an unrelated police investigation into financial-sector hacking, so only its headline supports the award report.
- The scope of the site's safety technology, including a noise-reduction device for ventilation fans. Reported only by Seoul Economic Daily and attributed to the company.
