UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

C2C Railway Limited intends to procure works to fully replace the existing footbridge between Platforms 1 and 2 at West Horndon Station. The proposed replacement is a covered Beacon station footbridge with passenger lifts, combining footbridge construction, railway construction and lift installation. The work will take place at West Horndon Station in Essex. It is a station-access and rail-infrastructure project, involving structural construction and installation works within an operational railway environment. C2C Railway Limited is the buyer and a public undertaking operating in the utilities sector. The procurement covers one defined package of works for the replacement station crossing and associated passenger lift provision.

This procurement is at the planning stage: C2C Railway Limited has announced its intention to buy the works, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The expected procedure is a competitive flexible procedure for an above-threshold utilities procurement. There is one planned lot, with an anticipated contract period from 18 January 2027 to 30 June 2028. The estimated value is £4.5 million excluding VAT, or £5.4 million including VAT. Preliminary market engagement is scheduled, with questionnaire responses requested by 12 noon on 18 September 2026. A supplier briefing is planned for 10 September 2026 at Southend United Football Club, and a further procurement notice is expected on 23 September 2026.

The work is likely to suit construction contractors and specialist rail-infrastructure suppliers able to deliver structural footbridge replacement and lift installation as an integrated project. Relevant capability includes designing, constructing or renewing pedestrian bridges, working around railway platforms and infrastructure, and installing passenger lifts within a station environment. Suppliers with experience coordinating civil, structural, railway and mechanical or electrical packages may be well placed when the procurement reaches the market. The planned lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so established SMEs with the required delivery capacity, project management capability and rail-site experience should monitor the forthcoming procurement. The market engagement provides an opportunity to understand the proposed scope and inform the buyer’s approach.
