Utrecht, Netherlands
Contact person: Evelien Bremer
Tel: +31 6 3065 1892
Email: Aanbestedingsteam-GWW@rws.nl

Contract Description

Rijkswaterstaat has awarded a supplementary contract with a value of EUR 3.46 million to The Coentunnel Company (CCY), a consortium consisting of Mobilis, Dura Vermeer, and Besix.
The award relates to the existing contract signed in 2008 for the design, construction, financing, and maintenance of the first and second Coentunnels, which remains in force until 21 December 2037.

Scope of Works

The supplementary works form part of CCY’s ongoing availability and maintenance obligations and include additional activities associated with:

• Technical installations
• Safety systems and structures
• Integration with existing tunnel infrastructure

The contracting authority determined that only CCY possesses the required technical expertise and system knowledge to carry out these works safely and efficiently.

• Supplementary contract value: EUR 3.46 million
• VAT: Excluded

Contract Duration

• Contract validity aligned with the original concession
• End date: 21 December 2037

Procurement Information
