Description

Translink owns, operates and maintains the rail network in Northern Ireland comprising circa 300 miles of plain line track and 200 sets of switches and crossings. We wish to establish a multi-Supplier Framework for manufacture and supply of rail to support the delivery of Translink’s programme of capital and maintenance works. Rails required will be CEN56E1 profile in R260 and premium grades as approved for use on Network Rail, or equivalent. As part of the PME we would like to discuss the potential for the supply of corrosion resistant rails as approved for use on Network Rail, or equivalent. The framework will initially run for 4 years with options to extend up to a maximum of a further 4 years. We would like to receive expressions of interest from suppliers with a proven track record in the supply of rail. NOTE THIS CFT IS NOT A CALL FOR TENDER.
