FW053 Supply of Rail
This sits below the typical range for Transport Equipment contracts — a smaller, more accessible award. Based on 15,368 valued Transport Equipment tenders in our corpus.
Translink owns, operates and maintains the rail network in Northern Ireland comprising circa 300 miles of plain line track and 200 sets of switches and crossings.
We wish to establish a multi-Supplier Framework for manufacture and supply of rail to support the delivery of Translink’s programme of capital and maintenance works.
Rails required will be CEN56E1 profile in R260, premium and corrosion resistant grades as approved for use on Network Rail.
The framework will initially run for 4 years with options to extend up to a maximum of a further 4 years.
We would like to receive expressions of interest from suppliers with a proven track record in the supply of rail.
