DRAIN CONSTRUCTION
Chirundu Local Board wants 550 metres of drain constructed within a month and stay valid 60 days. Bids close 17 September 2026 at 09:00 CAT.
Construction of 550 metres of drain for Chirundu Local Board. The length is the only figure published, and it is the one number that tells you this is a real civils job rather than a patch repair. Everything that would let you price it is missing: no cross-section, no depth, no indication of whether the drain is concrete lined, block, or earth cut, no soil or rock conditions, and no bill of quantities. Chirundu sits in the Zambezi valley on the Zambian border, which matters. It is hot, remote from most contractors and plant hire, and the ground conditions there are their own question. Mobilisation to site will be a meaningful part of any honest price. This is competitive bidding rather than a quotation, so expect a full submission with method statement and programme. The period is one month and bids stay valid 60 days. The full tender document was not available where we read this, so download it from the source and walk the route before pricing — 550 metres through unknown ground cannot be quoted from a desk.
