## 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. 
This 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.
The Scope of Works covered under this tender include, but are not limited to, the following key elements:
Permanent Way Works
Construction 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. 
Civil Engineering Works
Installation 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.
Telecommunications Works
Installation 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. 
Signaling Works
Provision 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 infrastr...
