Lot 1 is for the construction of two single-track tunnels of 10.5 km each and associated underground structures, with an estimated cost of €403 million. The bidders are OHL and, in JV, Corsí¡n-Corviam, Coprosa and Comsa; Ploder and Vinci; Dragados, ACS and Obras Subterrí¡neas; Aldesa, Tableros y Puentes, Construcciones Paraí±o and Construcciones Sando; FCC and Necso; and Ferrovial with Sacyr. Tenders lapsed on 30th April, 2003 and it is planned to open the financial bids on 16th May. Tenders lapsed on 7th May, 2003 for the submission of bids for Lot 2, section Folledo-Viadangos (4 km). This section is valued at €306 million and includes two twin tunnels and other underground works. The bidders are the same as for Lot 1.Bids for the two remaining contracts are due in May 2003.

Contract 1 of the Pajares tunnels, section Pola de Gordí³n-Folledo, has been awarded to a JV of FCC and Necso for €531.7 million. Contract 1 includes the construction of two 10.5 km tunnels. The JV will build the Folledo access adit (1,950 m), to be mined by conventional means and a 60 m cut-and-cover tunnel at the portal, both to be completed during the first 14 months of the project, concurrently with a 230 m open cut to access to the portals on the Leí³n side. Once this is completed, four months will be needed to mine the Folledo cavern using conventional means. This cavern is necessary for geological reasons at the junction between the access adit and the future tunnels. The TBMs will be assembled in the cavern to drive 8 km of tunnels uphill until the portals located on the Leí³n side. Time frame: 32 months. At the same time, from the cavern, 2 x 2.5 km of tunnel will be excavated by conventional means heading downhill. Finally, 40 m-long cut-and-cover tunnels will be built at the Leí³n portals. The project also encompasses the building of the cross passages between the twin tunnels. Contract 1 also has a 18-month time frame for the assembly of the TBMs. Visit www.fcc.es and www.necso.es 22/03.Contract 2, section Folledo-Viadangos, has been awarded to a JV of Dragados, ACS and Obras Subterrí¡neas for €417.8 million.

Afterwards, 4 km of the Pajares tunnels will be bored using conventional means (San Emiliano geological formation), some 1,600 m downwhill and 2,400 m uphill. The cross passages between the two bores are also included. Time frame: 5 years. Visit www.dragados.es, www.grupoacs.com and www.obrassubterraneas.es 22/03.Both for contracts 1 and 2, the time frame for design is 4 months and 60 months for construction. 22/03.For contract 3, section Viadangos-Telledo (tunnel east), the eight bidders are Aldesa Construcciones / Tableros y Puentes / Construcciones Paraí±o / Construcciones Sí¡nchez Domí­­nguez Sando; Corsí¡n-Corviam / Coprosa / Comsa; FCC / Necso; Copcisa / Ferní¡ndez Constructor / Azvi / Constructora Hispí¡nica; OHL; Ploder / Vinci; Ferrovial-Agromí¡n / Sacyr / Cavosa; and Dragados / ACS / Obras Subterrí¡neas. 22/03.The seven candidates who have bidded for contract 4, section Viadangos-Telledo (tunnel west) are: Aldesa Construcciones / Tableros y Puentes / Construcciones Paraí±o / Construcciones Sí¡nchez Domí­­nguez Sando; Corsí¡n-Corviam / Coprosa / Comsa; FCC / Necso; Copcisa / Ferní¡ndez Constructor / Azvi / Constructora Hispí¡nica; OHL; Ferrovial-Agromí¡n / Sacyr / Cavosa; and Dragados / ACS / Obras Subterraneas. 22/03.Contract 3 for the design and construction of the Pajares tunnels has been awarded to a JV of Ferrovial-Agromí¡n, Sacyr and Cavosa for €239.19 million.
