Balfour Beatty’s 50/50 joint venture, Gammon, has secured two significant development projects with a combined value of HK $6.1 billion for two new government buildings and five residential towers, located in Kowloon, Hong Kong.
Kwun Tong Composite Development
Gammon will be responsible for the design and construction of a 25-story building accommodating a new college and other training facilities, as well as a nine-story building to include community and welfare amenities on behalf of the Architectural Services Department, valued at HK $2.7 billion.
To ensure the project’s safe and efficient delivery, Gammon will utilize offsite, precast methods, as well as its digital solution, known as STAMP, for project management, material delivery and installation.
The Kwun Tong Composite Development is scheduled for completion in 2026, and at construction peak will employ a direct workforce of approximately 1,400.
Ho Man Tin Package One
The second project, valued at HK $3.4 billion, is for the construction of five residential towers on behalf of Great Eagle Group. Upon completion, the towers will accommodate 990 new apartments located atop the MTR Ho Man Tin Station—an underground station serving the Kwun Tong Line and Tuen Ma Line.
To reduce the project’s carbon emissions and fuel consumption, Gammon will deploy the Enertainer — developed in partnership with AMPD Energy — an electric-powered battery storage system used as the primary power source for construction machinery onsite, reducing the need for diesel generators.
The Ho Man Tin Package One will complete in 2024, and at peak will employ a workforce of approximately 1,200.
