EACOP: Early Civil Works – Access Roads Design
ICS were contracted to prepare the detailed engineering design of MCPY-4 Campsite (Marshalling yard) and all the project access roads leading to the 4Nos campsites as well as access road to Pump Station 2 (PS2) in Sembabule. The project access roads are categorized into Temporary Access Roads (TARs) located adjacently to each camp, Permanent Access Roads (PARs) only adjacent to the Pump Stations and Existing Road Upgrades (ERUs).
