    "description": "DP World is undertaking the expansion of its London Gateway Port facility at Stanford le Hope, through the development of a new second rail terminal located to the west of the existing eastern operational rail facility. This investment will significantly increase the port's rail freight capacity, improve operational resilience, and support the continued growth of DP Worlds sustainable, low carbon logistics solutions. \nThis expansion represents a strategic enhancement of the port's intermodal capability, enabling faster, more efficient movement of goods across the UK and supporting national objectives for greener freight transport. The new terminal will play a key role in accommodating future demand and maintaining London Gateway's position as a world class logistics and supply chain hub.\nThe Scope of Works covered under this tender include, but are not limited to, the following key elements:\nPermanent Way Works\nConstruction of new railway infrastructure to serve the second terminal including plain line track, and associated components in a phase installation sequence delivering five new sidings (7 to 11) to compliment the two sidings (12 and 13) already constructed during Phase 1/1A of the works, which are currently in operation. Installation and integration of 21 new switches and crossings (S&C) required to connect the new terminal to the existing rail network corridor as well as providing more route paths for trains entering and exiting the existing eastern rail terminal. \nCivil Engineering Works\nInstallation of a circa 850m long reinforced concrete crane rail beam with pre-cast concrete pile foundations and its associated mechanical chambers to allow Rail Mounted Gantry Crane (RMGC) operations within the new terminal. Earthworks, formation preparation, track drainage and utility diversions necessary to support the new terminal infrastructure. Construction of numerous ancillary civils foundation bases, walkways, cable routes and under track crossings for the new signalling, telecommunications and electrical plant equipment, shunters cabin and REB building.\nTelecommunications Works\nInstallation of new and relocation of existing Operational Telecoms and SiSS systems assets including CCTV cameras, signal post and point zone telephones and the shunters panel concentrator. \nSignaling Works\nProvision of new and relocation of existing signaling assets, including lineside equipment, control system modifications in the form of new Shunters Cabin housing an updated control panel to operate both rail terminals, and associated REB for the signaling system interlocking. These assets will be constructed in a staged delivery to align with the permanent way phasing, to ensure full operational compatibility. Installation of new signaling track circuits to both the western and eastern terminals will enable operation of both facilities from the one new control panel. Testing, commissioning and integration of all new rail systems with existing operational infrastructure as well as update to the Upminster IECC workstation screens. \nElectrical and Plant Works\nNew power supplies to the various disciplines line side equipment, shunters cabin and REB, as well as new points heating assets for both the western and existing eastern rail terminal S&C units.\nInterfaces and Integration\nManagement of all interfaces with existing rail infrastructure, port operations, utilities, and third party stakeholders. Development of staging plans to minimise operational disruption and ensure safe working adjacent to live rail and port environments. Coordination with existing port operations to ensure safe and continuous functionality during construction.\nProject Goals \nUpon completion, the new rail terminal will provide; increased rail served capacity for containerised freight, enhanced operational flexibility and resilience, deliver infrastructure capable of supporting robotic next generation RMGC equipment and improved efficiency as well as reduce the ports carbon impact through expanded rail freight capability.\n Programme: It is intended that the Rail works will commence in July 2026 for a duration of 12 months.",
