Work on billions of dollars worth of new roads, bridges, dams and power plants in Indonesia could soon come to a standstill unless the government takes emergency action to help construction firms cover rising production costs, an industry trade group said. In an unprecedented step, the Indonesian Contractors Association this month asked the finance ministry to declare force majeure on all rupiah-based government infrastructure projects after federal and state agencies refused to pay more for the cost of labour and raw materials.
The Royal Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC) has issued a tender to design and build the Wadi Laban cable-stayed bridge.
The project seeks to increase capacity to ease traffic congestion on the Western Ring road, extending from Ibn Hazm Road to Jeddah Road.
The work scope also includes the development of the intersection at Jeddah Road, RCRC said in a tender document published on its website.
The last date for requesting tender is 1 November 2023, while the deadline for submission is 19 November 2023. The bids will be opened on 19 November at 2 pm.
