While the affected area is not accessible to general staff, the ACMs identified still present a health risk to authorised personnel who may need to enter the tunnel. To ensure compliance with Control of Asbestos Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, and to eliminate the risk of exposure, the identified materials must be removed safely by a competent, HSENI-licensed contractor. ## CPV classification Asbestos removal services Source Find a Tender (UK) · Notice ocds-h6vhtk-059302-2025-09-03T11:42:02+01:00 [View official notice](https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/ocds-h6vhtk-059302-2025-09-03T11:42:02+01:00) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
