]]> Qatar’s Public Works Authority (Ashghal) has awarded US-based Fluor Corp a $185m contract for management and construction supervision services of the $5bn Sharq Crossing Programme, previously known as the Doha Bay Crossing programme, Gulf Times has reported. The project will be led from Fluor’s Doha office with support from the Abu Dhabi and Greenville, South Carolina, offices. The project will traverse Doha Bay and comprise bridge sections interconnected by an immersed tube tunnel to create a new passageway beneath the waters of Doha Bay. Completion of the system is required by 2020 to support the run-up to the World Cup event.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
