## Summary

The Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council is initiating a tender process for the project titled "Poole Park Railway Track and Train Shed." This procurement falls under the industry category of railway construction works and is located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with an estimated budget of £200,000. Key dates include a future notice date set for 1st April 2021, followed by the contract's intended period running from 28th June 2021 to 31st August 2021. The council aims to replace railway track and construct a new train shed, with tender documents expected to be issued shortly after the notice date.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction and railway sectors, particularly those specialising in railway infrastructure and workshop construction. Suppliers with relevant experience, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are encouraged to express their interest as they will be invited automatically to bid once the tender documents are released. This project not only allows suppliers to contribute to local public infrastructure but also offers a platform for growth and collaboration within the construction industry.

## Notice

The Council has issued a future opportunity notice in order to raise awareness of this impending tender. The purpose of the notice is to highlight that the opportunity is commencing shortly. The Council will be seeking suitably experienced suppliers to replace the Poole Park railway track and replace the engine shed. A total of 640 m of track is to be laid and the track requirement is track gauge of 10 1/4. In addition, the contractor will be required to supply and erect a new purpose-designed steel building as replacement train shed which is 18m long. This will safely house new rolling stock, the new shed is longer than the current shed structure which will need to be demolished as part of this contract. The Council is hoping to issue the tender documents in April 2021. All suppliers who have expressed an interest in this opportunity will be automatically invited to bid once tender documents have been issued.
