Lot 1c represents technical engineering services for schemes with an estimated construction value greater than 3 000 000 EUR and any other general technical consultancy services as may be required.
Lot 1c relates to phases 6 – 7 inclusive together with operation and maintenance. For the avoidance of doubt, the lots cover any part of a phase, a combination of a number of phases, and any other general technical engineering services for roads and rail as may be required.
Lot 3b represents technical engineering services for general network management consultancy services.
