## Description
TfGM, Wigan MBC and Network Rail, have developed an option for a new heavy railway
station in Golborne, Wigan. The new station will be located on the existing electrified track
infrastructure on the West Coast Mainline (WCML) near to the site of the old Golborne
station. As part of the overall scheme, the new station would be served by an hourly service
between Wigan North-Western and Manchester Victoria.
The Golborne project incorporates the wider Wigan masterplan scope which includes
highways and public realm alterations which maximise opportunities in the adjacent car park,
improved traffic flow and junctions' layouts and enhanced active travel and pedestrian
measures within Golborne town centre.
TfGM have appointed a suitably experienced Main Contractor for the
Detailed Design, Construction and Handover (ES 5 – 8) of the works at the agreed Golborne
Station site.
A two-stage approach to the procurement (via the Restricted Procedure) and delivery of the
Detailed Design to PACE ES5 and Construction Phase ES5 – ES8 has been implemented, as
follows:
• First Stage : Detailed Design to ES5/Form B ‘Approved for Construction’ (AFC) status to
ascertain a fixed price lump sum for the construction works. This will also include the
development of value engineering options, innovation, and constructability for the delivery
of the Golborne Rail Station project based upon the completed ES4/Form A design.
• Second Stage: the period of construction, entry into service and hand back for the
completed station based on the ES5/Form B approved design from the First Stage.
