This project falls under the construction industry, specifically focusing on waterproofing work and is located in the South East of England. The procurement method used is a limited competitive quotation, with key dates including a tender period that ended on 9 February 2021 and a contract period spanning from 30 April 2021 to 1 March 2024. The total contract value is approximately £16 million. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction, particularly those specialising in waterproofing and fire protection services. Contractors that can provide the necessary labour, materials, and innovative design solutions associated with tunnelling and precast concrete structures will find themselves well-positioned to compete. With the involvement of substantial works under the HS2 project, this contract not only supports immediate business growth but also offers potential for future collaborations within large-scale infrastructure projects. ## Notice EKFB is seeking to appoint a subcontractor for the provision of labour, materials & equipment for the supply and application of Waterproofing and Firestopping to three (twin bore) precast concrete cut & cover tunnels, including design of Temporary works and production of fabrication designs. The Green Tunnels are cut and cover tunnels, which consists of excavating a trench (i.e. the cut) and constructing the tunnel within the cut and backfilling (i.e. cover) it afterwards, to restore the ground surface to its original state. By integrating the railway into the existing landscape, this tunnelling method contributes in mitigating potential impacts that it could have particularly in rural areas, such as visual pollution and wildlife fragmentation. For this reason, the Green Tunnels have been proposed as a sustainable solution for some sections of the HS2 route. The construction of the Three no cut and cover green tunnels will go ahead by using precast concrete segments at both Wendover, Greatworth and Chipping Warden and then by covering the pre-cast tunnels with a Compartmentalised membrane waterproofing system and also adding membrane support and fire protection. Tunnel length is 6km each of which there is 3 No of.
