-- IJM Construction Sdn Bhd (“IJM Construction”), a wholly owned subsidiary of IJM Corporation Berhad (“IJM”), has accepted a RM1.4 billion letter of award from New Pantai Expressway Sdn Bhd for the design and build of the New Pantai Highway Extension (“NPE 2”).
The fully elevated 15-kilometre extension (including directional ramps) will connect the Pantai Dalam Toll Plaza on the existing NPE to the Jalan Istana Interchange via Jalan Syed Putra, providing a new urban link within southern Kuala Lumpur. Construction is scheduled to commence in the fourth quarter of 2025 and is expected to be completed within 48 months.
Dato’ Lee Chun Fai, Group CEO & Managing Director, IJM Corporation Berhad, said:
“This award moves the NPE Extension from planning into delivery. It also marks our third project above RM1 billion this year after the RM1.4 billion fast-track data-centre in Johor and the RM2.135 billion hyperscale data-centre development in Elmina. Together, these wins reflect IJM Construction’s progress in delivering large-scale projects across industrial and infrastructure sectors.”
IJM Construction’s total outstanding order book now stands at approximately RM15.2 billion, its highest on record, including the Group’s share of construction associates in the United Kingdom and Singapore. Within Malaysia, the domestic order book stands at about RM9.3 billion, supported by balanced portfolio of industrial and infrastructure projects that continues to drive the Group’s growth.
