A U.K. joint venture building a 4.5-km extension to Londons Docklands Light Railway (DLR) won a contract to design, build, finance and operate another 2.5 km of track, raising the teams share on the 26-km system to $640 million.
An equally owned joint venture of contractor Amec PLC., London, and the Royal Bank of Scotland, Edinburgh, hopes to sign the new $380-million contract with Docklands Light Railway Ltd. this spring, when work starts on Londons east side.
