GoS Southeastern Region Sleeper Replacement Programme 2027

Summary

The tender concerns the replacement of railway concrete sleepers over approximately 115 km across six DB InfraGO AG networks in the southeastern region.

Installation of the new sleepers must include at least ballast cleaning. The works must be carried out with minimal disruption to railway operations. The objective is to prevent speed-restriction locations caused by damage in 2027–2028 and to improve the stability and availability of the railway network in the region. The tender submission deadline is 13 October 2026 at 08:00. The main construction works must be completed by December 2027, with follow-up activities such as load tamping completed by 30 September 2028. The machine-readable notice did not include precise qualification and compliance requirements; these must be checked in the official tender documents.
