26- 27 Laing O'Rourke Annual Review 2009 Using experience gained building railways across inhospitable terrain, we are managing and delivering the main track work and rail systems as part of a joint venture with a local civil engineering contractor. The scope of the project includes programme management, procurement, and rail system design and delivery. The project commenced in April 2007 and is scheduled for completion in late 2010. The Saudi North- South Railway, the CTW300, is a new rail line spanning approximately 800 km across remote desert, linking the Jordanian border to key Gulf ports and also Riyadh. While intended primarily for the transportation of minerals and raw materials, it is also a passenger railway. Transport and Mining Applying complete thinking and world- class processes to complex engineering challenges

Transport and Mining - Air - Marine - Rail - Roads and bridges - Mining 02 Heathrow East, London, UK A joint venture between Laing O'Rourke and Ferrovial Agromán, has secured a major contract through the BAA Framework to build phase 1 of the new Heathrow East, Terminal 2A. Our unique ' One Team' approach combines infrastructure and construction skills with specialist services provided by Crown House Technologies, Vetter and Select. Our expertise, honed on Heathrow's Terminal 5, will be critical in delivering the forecasted efficiencies, including a projected 10 per cent reduction in delivery time. Constructing in a ' live' airport environment presents unique logistical challenges. These include restrictions on use of tower cranes in protected air space, as well as the complexities of building directly above London Underground lines. Once fully operational, a combined total of more than 45 million passengers will use Terminals 5 and 2A annually - comprising 70 per cent of Heathrow's passenger footfall at one of the world's busiest airports. Laing O'Rourke is also recognised as a leading rail infrastructure contractor, delivering major multi- disciplinary rail projects and maintenance services to major clients in the UK, Australia and Saudi Arabia. As a major mining infrastructure provider, our ability to deliver infrastructure to enable the transport of minerals from pit to port has made us a highly regarded partner to the mining sector in Australia. Our ' Design, Build and Maintain' offering in road infrastructure demands logistics management capabilities that assure highly complex projects are delivered on time and on budget. Laing O'Rourke is a leading constructor and operational maintenance provider of rail, marine, air, road and mining infrastructure solutions. We have a successful track record in airport infrastructure development, and our expertise in the design and delivery of major airport terminal complexes ( including Heathrow and Dubai International) is unrivalled in the industry. Project capabilities range from heavy civil engineering of major terminal buildings and the conjoining infrastructure, to improvement and expansion schemes, including interior fit- out and operational maintenance. We are building an enviable reputation as an internationally focused marine infrastructure programme manager and project delivery contractor. 02
