Tender: Manchester Airport Station – Demolition and Structural Works for Platform Remodelling

About

Manchester Airport station redevelopment is seeking a contractor for demolition and structural enabling works to support platform remodelling that will accommodate longer train services. The work is part of a package from the Cross Manchester Capacity and Reliability Improvement Study and sits in Tranche 1 of the Manchester and North West Transformation Programme (MNTP); it aims to provide additional platform capacity so two 6x24m (144m) trains can permissively work in two of the four platforms and retain existing TOC services under double-stacking conditions. The scope includes installation, maintenance and removal of rail track protection, structural enabling and demolition works to an existing bridge structure, removal and disposal of road and pavement surfacing, kerbs and ducts, careful removal and storage of existing coping stones and pilaster caps for potential reuse, demolition of parapets, pilasters, precast beams, cill beams and south abutment concrete, demolition and disposal of bridge structural elements, and working within a rail environment in compliance with all relevant safety and possession requirements.
