IN BRIEF

The tender is a procurement milestone, not a construction start or opening date. The award, contract and site programme still have to follow.

  • The published base price is €4 million.
  • The planned works period is 18 months after the contractual start.
  • The project is intended to improve operational space and emergency-response capacity.
01

Procurement now moves into competition

Publication allows eligible contractors to examine the documents and submit bids under the stated procedure. The contracting body must evaluate bids and complete the award and contract stages before work can begin.

A base price is a procurement ceiling or reference, not proof of the final contract value or total project cost.

02

No service change has been announced yet

The existing fire and rescue contacts remain in use while the project progresses. Residents should not infer a changed response point or timetable from the tender alone.

The most useful next evidence will be the award decision, signed contract, site start and any published phasing that affects access around the plot.

WHAT TO DO NEXT

What you can do now.

  1. 01

    Keep using the current emergency and fire-service contacts.

  2. 02

    Follow the procurement record for award and contract notices.

  3. 03

    Check municipal notices when site works are scheduled.
