Egyptian contractor Hassan Allam Holding has announced that its subsidiary Hassan Allam Roads & Bridges has been awarded a contract to construct roads and pavings at the Oxagon industrial city development in Neom. In a social media post, the firm said that the scope of work includes the supply and application of pavement across multiple zones, covering a total area of about 375,000 square metres (sq m). Hassan Allam Holding is executing the project as part of a joint venture to deliver infrastructure and building works for Terminal 1 of the port at the Oxagon industrial city development. In June last year, Neom has awarded an estimated $1bn design-and-build contract for the project to a joint venture of local firm El-Seif Engineering Contracting, Egyptian contractor Hassan Allam Construction and Beijing-headquartered China Harbour Engineering Company. The scope of the package includes the development of a flexible quay, the construction of several new buildings and infrastructure works. Jacobs is the lead design consultant for the port project. The packages are the latest to be tendered for the port. In October 2023, Neom selected the joint venture of Belgium’s Deme and Greece’s Archirodon for the estimated $1bn contract to complete the next phase of the Duba port expansion at Oxagon. The second phase follows the award of a contract to deliver the first phase of the port expansion. A team of Boskalis, Besix and the local Modern Building Leaders was awarded that contract, with an estimated value of $800m, in January 2023. Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud launched Oxagon in late 2021. It will include onshore elements as well as floating structures offshore. Construction works on the 48-square-kilometre, eight-sided industrial city have already started. An expanded Duba port is a critical component of Oxagon and the broader Neom development, as it will allow greater volumes of materials to be imported for the project.   For registration as a supplier: https://www.neom.com/en-us/our-business/suppliers         (ICE RIYADH)
