Kuwait housing authority cuts shortlist for township work

25 March 2008
Kuwait’s Public Authority for Housing Care (PAHC) has cut its shortlist of 91 firms able to bid for three township contracts by more than half.

Just 41 companies are now able to compete for contract covering construction, completion and maintenance of houses and public buildings at the Saad Abdullah township, located on the outskirts of Kuwait City.

The work covers the construction of more than 800 buildings, split into packages of 263, 282 and 279 villas respectively.

PAHC is engaged in a multi-billion-dollar housing programme to provide homes for local nationals. The Sabah al-Ahmed Future City, located 50 kilometres south of Kuwait City, will have a population of 110,000 once completed in 2015 (MEED 19:02:08).
