The $200 million facility has been operational since September 2023.

In the next phase of the integrated construction park’s development, an integrated construction and prefabrication hub – where precast building components are made with automated systems – and two more RMC batching plants will be built by 2027. National Development Minister Desmond Lee said the authorities plan to build more integrated construction parks across Singapore, including at Pulau Punggol Barat. ST PHOTO: MARK CHEONGTender documents seen by The Straits Times said the site to be studied for the new development includes a land area of about 74ha – more than twice as large as the integrated construction park at Jurong Port, which will be about 35ha when completed.
The operations of the Tuas Aggregate Terminal, where raw materials such as sand and granite used in construction processes were imported, were moved to Jurong Port at the end of 2023. The system will also cut 216 barge trips a year because Jurong Port has deep-water berths where bulk vessels can dock close to shore to discharge construction materials, instead of having to anchor farther out at sea and have barges shuttle the raw materials to the port.
These belts, which resemble a roller-coaster track, will move the material to storage facilities at the port, which have been leased by companies that imported these materials.The materials are also taken via the belts to RMC batching plants, where excavators will scoop them up and dump them into an underground conveyor system that will take the materials to a batching plant that manufactures RMC.
