Bidders day for £100m Beckton DLR depot upgrade

Aaron Morby 7 years ago

Transport for London is planning a bidders day at the end of the month for the £100m extension of its Docklands Light Railway Beckton Depot.

Maintenance and stabling facilities are being extended to handle a new fleet of DLR trains.

TFL expects to invite tenders next year and will outline the scope and programme of the £50m-£100m to interested bidders.

Interested firms can apply to attend the event on 30 October in London by registering with the TfL portal.

A market sounding questionnaire will be issued shortly after the event for feedback from attendees on topics such as interest, packaging and some technical topics.
