PIE高架桥惨剧引以为戒! 林瑞莲质询当局吁保障公共安全

有鉴于2017年曾发生泛岛快速公路(PIE)施工高架桥倒塌的惨剧,工人党主席暨阿裕尼集选区议员林瑞莲,在国会质询当局对于建筑项目的规划,是否应扮演更多的管制角色,侦测和弥补漏洞,以保障公共安全。

林瑞莲是在本周三(4日)的国家发展部财案预算辩论,询问新加坡建设局(BCA)是否有检查和核实,那些项目工程所聘用的合格人员(QP)认证、资历和文件等符合资格。

他提及,国家发展部早在2018年7月,就已针对建筑项目的标准程序规划细节。例如,在提交项目阶段,建设局将对项目蓝图,以及关键结构等的设计计算,进行抽样调查。

这也是确保负责项目的合格人员和认证审查员(accredited checke),都有审核并确保有关设计,是符合建筑管制需求的。

此外,在施工阶段,建设局也会对结构工程进行针对性的检查。

故此,林瑞莲质询,在PIE工程施工时,当局是否曾进行上述审核调查。“PIE高架桥的结构倒塌,根据法庭发现的事实,是否意味着当中有需要弥补的漏洞?”

PIE高架桥惨剧

回溯2017年7月14日约凌晨3时30分,衔接樟宜东路上段和泛岛快速公路(PIE)的高架桥在兴建时,突然部分结构坍塌,造成一名中国籍客工丧命和10人受伤。

负责设计高架桥,结果却导致坍塌事故的工程师今早被判86周监禁与1万元罚款。

印尼籍工程师缺乏桥梁设计经验

该起事故当中的46岁印尼籍专业工程师罗伯特(Robert Arianto Tjandra),日前已针对一项工作场所安全与卫生法令,以及两项建筑管制法令控状认罪。

法官在宣判期间,表示本案造成伤害的可能极高,并斥责被告鲁莽行为导致建筑工人重伤,需为事件承担主要责任。

被告被指涉嫌在规划建筑工作上,知悉本身团队缺乏桥梁设计经验,并未能及时给予指导与指示。

另外,他也被指罔顾他人性命,为审查桥梁的设计图样疏忽,而且在团队计算错误后,仍未能采取有效补救措施。
