Kwinana Freeway Widening and Upgrade - from Leach Highway to Roe Highway

The Project Works include all investigation, design, and construction required to construct the Kwinana Freeway widening and upgrade between Leach Highway and Roe Highway. The Project Works also include all investigation and design required to realign the Northbound Kwinana Freeway exit ramp at South St, extend Main St and modify the Murdoch Station car park and accesses.

RFP documents are attached.

Proponents will be required to meet certain mandatory criteria for their proposals to be fully assessed. These criteria include the proponent being pre-qualified under Main Roads pre-qualification procedures to categories RW4 and SW1 before they submit a proposal. An F50 rating also applies for financial levels. This rating is a guide only and proponents with an assessed “F” rating lower than this guide will be eligible to submit a RFP. However proponents need to be aware that Main Roads will conduct a rigorous assessment prior to award of the contract. This may result in a submission which is otherwise the lowest priced submission being rejected by Main Roads on the basis of judgement (made at the time of assessing RFP’s) that the lowest priced proponent does not have the financial capacity to successfully complete the works.

The National Code of Practice for the Construction Industry, in conjunction with the Australian Government Implementation Guidelines, August 2009 applies to this project.

It is also a requirement of this project that any persons contracted undertake the building work be accredited under the Australian Government Building and Construction OHS Accreditation Scheme established by the Building and Construction Industry Improvement Act 2005, at the time of the lodgement of the RFP closing for the building work and while the building work is being carried out.
