KUALA LUMPUR: MyHSR Corporation Sdn Bhd has awarded the Ground Control Point (GCP) survey works contracts for the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High Speed Rail (KL-SG HSR) to Jurukur Perunding Services Sdn Bhd and Teraju Ukur.
The company released a statement today saying that the consultants will be responsible for the installation of the GCP markers and the establishment of a common reference between the national and state grids, and coordinate systems for the purposes of the project.
“The GCP survey works is a critical component of the preparatory works of the KL-SG HSR project as it will provide the project with a referenced coordinate scheme that will be essential for the purposes of land acquisition and construction along the project’s 335km alignment in Malaysia," MyHSR Corporation said in the statement.
