Details

The project entails the design and construction of a shared, multiuse recreation pathway - a rail trail - along approximately 5km section of the disused rail corridor. The trail will commence across the road from the Visitor Information Centre, connecting to the existing pedestrian path and pedestrian bridge (east of the Visitor Information Centre), merge into the existing railway corridor, and proceed northwards for approximately 5 km. The completed trail will provide a high-quality, unsealed shared path, accessible for cyclists, pedestrians and other permitted users.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this transport & logistics opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
