Leighton Asia is proud to be one of the contractors behind the delivery of the Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link.
Opened in 2018 and spanning about 11 hectares with 400,000m2 of construction floor area, the project is the world’s largest underground railway terminus and serves as Hong Kong’s international gateway to Mainland China.
The station’s entrance features 9,000 tonnes of steel trusses and a curved ceiling made from over 8,000 tonnes of steel, nearly matching the weight of the Eiffel Tower. Prefabricated components, some weighing up to 40 tonnes, span 45m, demonstrating engineering at scale.
With over 4,000 unique glass panels, rooftop public spaces, and artistic installations, the station is not just a transport hub but a civic landmark.
The project adopted drone technology and 3D reality modelling throughout construction to enhance safety and efficiency,
At Leighton Asia, we remain committed to innovation and delivering infrastructure that enhances connectivity.
