TRC000373 Wild Dog Check Fence Renewal

Summary and scope

The renewal fencing program for the Wild Dog Check Fence (WDCF) is funded from Council’s capital works program. Council is requesting tenders on a per kilometre basis with item costs for end assemblies, gateways, electric fence and creek crossing as per specifications. Renewal of the WDCF will require removal and disposal of the existing fence. Clearing and removal of vegetation along the WDCF will be conducted by means of a tracked mulching head. Tracks along the WDCF are to be maintained at a maximum width of 10 metres. Completion of works will require both sides of the fence to be easily accessible to Council staff and landholders for inspection and maintenance purposes. The contractor will be responsible for undertaking “Dail before you Dig” checks for underground services, and engaging any sub-contractors required to perform the works with the WDCF renewal fencing program. A minimum of 3 site visits and a final inspection will be conducted by Council prior to completion of works. Prospective tenderers are required to attend a Compulsory Site Inspection with Council on Friday 4 September 2024 to assess works prior to final submission of the tender offer. Please contact Robert Campbell via E-mail Robert.Campbell@tr.qld.gov.au for details on meeting time and place. All tender enquiries are to be addressed via the VendorPanel forum post. Note: Works must be completed and invoiced prior the end of 2024/25 financial year. (Tenderers should consider the potential for delays due to rainfall and other weather conditions which may inhibit access.)
