## Summary

Kier Infrastructure and Overseas Limited is overseeing a procurement process for devegetation works at Manchester International Airport, aimed at clearing land to support the development of additional platform capacity to facilitate longer train services. This project falls under the landscaping work for airports category and is part of the Cross Manchester Capacity and Reliability Improvement Study. It is slated to be a component of the Manchester and North West Transformation Programme (MNTP). The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with expressions of interest required by 24th January 2025. The contract period is scheduled from 10th February to 31st May 2025, and the location for the works is primarily in the North West of the UK.

This tender offers a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in site clearance, tree-clearing services, and PTS-qualified labour. Companies engaged in these industries can leverage this project to showcase their expertise in large-scale infrastructure development, providing room for growth through high-visibility public works. Business entities well-suited to compete for this opportunity are those with proven experience in similar devegetation and site preparation projects, particularly within stringent deadlines and safety standards required by such significant transportation infrastructure projects.

## Notice

The planned introduction of longer train services to the Airport in response to future demand growth will mean that double stacking arrangements of trains as currently used will no longer be viable. Through the project's Delivery Steering Group, Northern and TransPennine Express have carried out analysis which has identified that additional platform capacity is needed at the airport in order to realise the full benefit of longer train services serving the airport. The scheme is part of a package of proposed measures in the Manchester area that are being designed/planned to boost capacity and resilience, emanating from the Cross Manchester Capacity and Reliability Improvement Study. Improving the operation of train services in the centre of Manchester and providing further capacity at Manchester Airport station, aligns with the strategic aims of Network Rail, TfGM, TfN and the wider industry. This project in in Tranche 1 of the Manchester and North West Transformation Programme (MNTP): A remodelling of the station at Manchester Airport, specifically a platform addition or extension of multiple platforms, or provision of a new turnback facility, will be essential to accommodate the planned implementation of longer rolling stock services. The redevelopment of these platforms will enable permissive working of two 6x24m (144m) trains, in two of the four platforms at the Airport Station. This will allow for the unaltered retention of all existing TOC services both originating and terminating at the Airport Station under 'double-stacking' conditions. Kier are seeking expressions of interest for devegetation works to clear a portion of the site ready for surveys to be conducted. The works will commence in early February 2025, will require competent PTS qualified labour and disposal of cleared material. The tenderer may wish to conduct a site visit to verify the extent of the works required, please make contact if this is required.
