Tender description

The works are located at Northolt Tunnels West (NTW) Northolt Tunnels East (NTE) and Euston Tunnels (ET). At each location a twin-bore tunnel will be constructed, forming two parallel tunnels, each containing a single rail track. SCS JV will construct 13 miles of twin-bore tunnels on the HS2 route using six TBMs, of which five will operate simultaneously. Approximately 42km of escape and maintenance walkway must be constructed throughout the length of the running tunnels. The emergency walkway shall run on the cross passage side and connect to it as well as to safe areas at portals, intervention points and shafts to provide a safe walking route. The maintenance walkway shall be installed on the opposite side to facilitate access for the inspection, maintenance and periodic component replacement operations necessary for train operation. The preferred construction methods for the tunnel walkways shall be either horizontal slip-forming system (slip-forming paver) or a system using mechanised shutter-based slip formwork.

About the buyer

HS2 Ltd is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Transport, and buys as a central government agency building Britain's high-speed railway between London and Birmingham. Contracts above the public procurement threshold are advertised on Find a Tender, and smaller awards appear on Contracts Finder. Framework agreements cover major packages, such as the lifts and escalators for Phase One stations. Four tier-one joint-venture contractors, including EKFB and Align JV, deliver the main civils work. Those contractors procure their own tier-two subcontractors, who source further down the chain. Live subcontract opportunities are advertised through the CompeteFor portal.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of HS2's contract awards have been in construction work, metals and mining products and transport equipment.
