The works will take place in two phases. Phase one will take place during October 2020 with a total of approximately 2676 metres of rail line removed for disposal and Phase two taking place in early 2021 with a total of approximately 3000 metres of rail line removed for disposal. The total expected weight of rail lines is anticipated to be around 567 tonnes (excluding sundries such as cast iron cleats and shoes). The Council is seeking offers from Contractors for purchase of the scrap rail lines. As part of their offer the Contractor shall provide at least 2 suitable open top roll on off hook lift or similar type containers with a capacity of approximately 35 to 40 yards with full height double doors for the rail lines to be loaded into. ## CPV classification Rails and accessories Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/2266e190-a1f9-4982-9c8b-d1195d15eeda) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
