"Fluor, Balfour Chosen to Bid for Crossrail Project (Update2)
By Scott Hamilton and Brian Lysaght
Aug. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Fluor Corp., Balfour Beatty Plc and Capita Group Plc were picked as candidates to manage the building of the 16 billion-pound ($30 billion) Crossrail link across southeast England.
Laing O'Rourke Group and Bechtel Corp. are also finalists for the position of delivery partner, which will require boring a 21-kilometer (13-mile) rail tunnel under central London, the U.K. government body promoting the project said in an e-mailed statement late yesterday.
Crossrail, Europe's largest construction job, will be the biggest U.K. infrastructure project since the Channel Tunnel was completed in 1994. The east-west link will ease the strain on the capital's aging train network by connecting Heathrow airport, the West End shopping district and the Canary Wharf office complex. Construction work on the 118-kilometer link will start next year and it's due to open in 2017.
As well as Bechtel and Laing O'Rourke, Balfour will bid along with Parsons Brinckerhoff Inc. in a joint venture called Legacy 3, the government agency Cross London Rail Links Ltd. said in yesterday's statement. Capita will tender with London- based NNN Ltd., a builder also known as Northcroft.
Fluor is in a group called Flare, which includes Ove Arup & Partners Ltd. and EC Harris LLP.
Building Work
A separate list of companies chosen as candidates for the job of program partner, who will coordinate the various project participants, includes Mouchel Group Plc, Bechtel and Legacy 3. It also includes a venture called Transcend, which is made up of Aecom Technology Corp., CH2M HILL Cos. and Nichols Group.
The delivery partner will handle the building work, while the program partner will provide project-management services.
Successful bidders will be chosen toward the end of the year, CLRL said.
Balfour rose 15.75 pence, or 3.9 percent, to close at 417.75 pence in London. Capita Group gained 11.5 pence, or 1.6 percent, to 719 pence. Mouchel added 1.2 percent to 391.5 pence. Fluor Corp. advanced 0.9 percent to $78.80 as of 12:14 p.m. in New York
Bechtel, the closely held San Francisco-based builder that constructed the Channel Tunnel, was hired in 2005 to oversee the design phase of Crossrail.
Laing O'Rourke, Britain's biggest closely held builder, and Denver-based CH2M HILL are partners in a venture overseeing the building of an 80,000-seat Olympic stadium and athletes' village for London's 2012 games. CH2M HILL is employee-owned.
Crossrail, which aims to get passengers from Heathrow airport to Canary Wharf in 43 minutes, will involve building new terminals at London's Paddington, Tottenham Court Road and Liverpool Street rail stations. The project will be paid for by the government, riders' fares and a tax on business.
CLRL is a joint venture between Transport for London and the government's Department for Transport. Later this year, CLRL will become a subsidiary of TfL.

KHOODEELAAR! the constitutional law campaign against Big Business agenda Crossrail hole plot - Update: Home Office loses YET more CRIME data [51]
1810 GMT 1910 Hrs UK Time London Friday 22 August 2008:
KHOODEELAAR! No to “Big Business scam Crossrail hole plot....” CAMPAIGN has argued with evidence every single day since 31 January 2004 [the date of the actual beginning of this campaign] that Big Business was essentially bad for ordinary people, that Big Business was also country to the essential values of democracy, tolerance and a just society, that Big Business did not care, cannot care and will never care for the needs of ordinary people... that the UK public stood to lose out via CRASSrail and that the central moving forces behind CRASSrail were the interests we have identified as the ‘City of London elements and interests’........
That our analysis has been correct has been vindicated [unwillingly but actually] by the hundreds of items of confessions, admissions published by the Big Business-supporting outlets of propaganda and mainstream media in the UK in the years since 31 January 2008. As the they c to vindicate the KHOODEELAAR! dissection and analysis and conclusion and finding of the undesirability of Big Business.... We have researched and researched into the operation of Big Business as the dominating influence behind the agenda that is formally set by the formally established, maintained ‘democratic institutions’ including the UK House of Commons... We have shown in exhausting detail how the UK House of Commons has been a stooged House of Commons.. that it is neither holding the executive of the day to account nor is it capable of doing so... because of a plethora of factors lying at the heat of the UK ‘state’..... That the reason why the brazenly crassly contrived and crassly conceived CRASSrail hole scam [called the ‘London Crossrail’ ‘project] has been given passage through the UK House of Commons generally and via the ‘House of Commons Crossrail Bill Select Committee’ in particular [and we HERe do NOT even refer to the offensively over-hyped House of Lords Crossrail Bill Select Committee] is not evidence of democratic scrutiny at work but that ON THE CONTRARY it is evidence of the total absence of democracy in the House of Commons on all issues and on all matters that matter...... That today’s [Friday 22 August 2008] the ‘mainstream’ ‘media’ which BACKS the Big Business CRASSrail hole scam, is expressing all degrees and levels of anxiety an concern over the latest disclosure or finding of the LOSS OF VITAL PERSONAL DATA by the Police Department [that is the KHOODEELAAR! phrase from now on [1810 GMT Friday 22 August 2008] for the UK Interior Ministry, the ‘Home Office’] is PROOF of just how CLUELESS these media ‘editors and experts’ are about the state of mess and abuse of pub;ic resources and public powers that Big Business has created and keeps via the UK state.... We say again that therefore the unconstitutionally promoted Crossrail scam must be made subject to the constitutionality that it has been allowed to evade and avoid...PENDING the democraic scruitun, Gordon Brown must scrap the CRASSrail now...[To be continued]
