Singapore’s construction landscape in 2024 is marked by significant developments ranging from residential and commercial towers to integrated transport hubs and public facilities.

Furthermore, ICA plans to enhance its immigration clearance systems with automated lanes starting from the first quarter of 2024. The next-generation Automated Border Control System (ABCS) will replace manual counters at all checkpoints with about 800 automated lanes, allowing for contactless clearance for residents and visitors.
