Notice the accumulation of dug up soil around the drilling machine. It will be scooped up by tractor into waiting trucks as work progresses.

Only a few days after the Lunar New Year holidays, the building site was full of activities again. On site, there were at least 12 to 14 heavy machineries working non-stop from morning to dusk.

Most work in groups, one drilling rig, one heavy lifting crane and a tractor. There were at least 4 groups working on different plots.

In Punggol, there are many completed HDB housing projects. Some near completion, others just started. The experience gathered, will thus enable workers to work at enormous speed and efficiency.

At the moment, work is still at piling stage, concreting of the piles and load testing. Soon workers should be working on the foundations and footings.
