Tunnel repair contract up for grabs

03/05/2012 | HIGHWAYS REPORTERS

Leeds City Council is looking for a contractor to carry out strengthening and repairs to the A58 Woodhouse Tunnel.

The Woodhouse Tunnel is suffering severe concrete damage and deterioration as a result of prolonged, extensive chloride ingress from winter de-icing salts.

The damage is so severe that the structural capacity of components is now being affected.

The tunnel needs extensive concrete repairs to the roof and  walls of both tunnel bores and strengthening for vehicle impact loading to the  area of the tunnel supporting the Leeds General Infirmary buildings.

Strengthening work for vehicle impact loading and protection to the rest of the tunnel is also required.

The 23 month job will be split into two phases. First the successful contractor will be asked to provide advice on how the works can be delivered most effectively.

Construction works proper will then start and last 20 months.

For more information contact  anne.sweeting@leeds.gov.uk. PQQ documentation must be completed by the end of the month and is available from Http://scms.alito.co.uk.
