How ITA Criteria were addressed in the Entry Submission: The success of bringing the Project in on time and within budget is largely credited to the design and construction innovations developed for and during the project.
These include:
• Variable Density Tunnel Boring Machine
• Steel fibre Reinforced Concrete Segments and Universal Tunnel Lining Rings
• Station Depths Reduced with lifting Vertical Alignment
• Deep Soil Mixing
• Re-scheduling of TBM Drives during the Project cycle.

Relevance of the Project and the Tunneling Solution • Geological Challenges
• 50% of the tunneling alignment sitting in highly graded Karstic Limestone
• Classified as extreme karst (5 on a scale of 1-5)
• Intricate three-dimensional network of solution channels, steep side crevices and highly irregular rock head
• Overlain with soft soils
• High groundwater table

The Success Story The tunneling works were completed in April 2015 without any
major incidents of sinkhole or subsidence in the Karstic Limestone
The tunneling solution was a major factor in overcoming opposition to the selected alignment from highly influential affected stakeholders and allowing underground construction to proceed
MGKT employed 90% of all tunneling engineers locally and trained 50% of its operations crew from their own tunneling academy set up in December 2011
The VD-TBM has since won the International Tunneling award for Technical Innovation

Project site comprised 2 equal route lengths of geological areas, Karstic Limestone & Kenny Hill. For Stations, open excavation with rock blasting in Limestone to construct bottom up and D-Walls with temporary columns to support top-down construction in Kenny Hill. For Tunnels, VD machines in Limestone and EPBs in Kenny Hill.
