Bigben Road reconstruction
The Municipality of Gwanda wants plant hire for Bigben Road — 3 tippers at a dry rate per load for 30 loads over a 25km haul, a 18 000–20 000 litre water bowser and an excavator at hourly dry rates, plus mobilisation. Bids close 17 September 2026 at 11:00 CAT.
Plant hire for the construction of Bigben Road in Gwanda, priced on a dry rate basis — meaning you supply the machine and the operator is engaged separately, or fuel is on the municipality's account, so confirm exactly what "dry" covers here before pricing. The tippers are 3 trucks doing 10 loads each, 30 loads in total, over a 25km haul. The gravel pit is stated as 25km along the Old Gwanda Road from town, which tells you the route and lets you work out a cycle time. The water bowser is 18 000 to 20 000 litres, hired at a dry rate per hour, with 30 units of that hire. The excavator is likewise hourly with 30 units. Mobilisation and demobilisation are separate priced lines for each of the three machine types, which is a sensible structure and worth using. VAT at 15.5% is included as its own line, so the schedule expects a VAT-inclusive submission. One figure to query: the tippers are described as 200m³, which is far beyond any road truck — 20m³ is the likely intent. Get that confirmed, since it changes the number of loads needed entirely. The period is 3 months on ERRP funding. The full tender document was not available where we read this, so download it from the source before quoting.
