Description:
Galway County Council (GCC), in partnership with Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), is developing the main works Procurement Strategy for the N6 Galway City Ring Road. The scheme which received approval from An Coimisiún Pleanála on the 7th April 2026, is a proposed major national road project of approximately 17.5 km around Galway City, including a bridge over the River Corrib, two viaducts and two tunnels. Before finalising its main works Procurement Strategy, GCC is seeking feedback and views from the market, including main contractors, design consultants, specialist subcontractors, suppliers and other members of the supply chain, on the key elements of the main works Procurement Strategy. This is a preliminary market consultation under Regulation 40 of the European Union (Award of Public Authority Contracts) Regulations 2016 (S.I. No. 284 of 2016). It is non-binding and non-competitive. Taking part does not form part of any pre-qualification, selection or tender process, will not give any participant an advantage, and does not commit GCC or TII to proceed with any procurement. Participation is open to Irish, UK and international organisations and supply chains with relevant experience in the design and construction of major roads projects. The following documents are available on eTenders: the Information Briefing Document, the Market Engagement Questionnaire, and the Teams Market Engagement Event Registration Questionnaire. Navigate to “Show PMC Menu” and click on PMC Documents. Teams Market Engagement Event: GCC and TII will hold an online event on Microsoft Teams at 12:30 on Thursday 26 November 2026. To attend, please return the completed registration questionnaire through the eTenders messaging facility by 16:00 on Tuesday 24 November 2026, using the subject line: N6GCRR Scheme – Market Engagement Event Registration.
