II.1.2) Short description of the contract or purchase(s) (as stated in the original notice) Crossrail, with a budget of GBP15.9 billion and expected to employ up to 14,000 people, will be the biggest transport initiative in London and the South East of the UK for 50 years, and the biggest construction project underway in Europe. The project requires the development of a major new railway system under central London including the construction of major tunnels and eight new underground stations. The new line will integrate with existing main line, metro and underground railway systems, with the first trains due to operate in 2017.

Although appointed by the DfT, the P-Rep will have a joint duty of care to both the DfT and TfL and will possess the appropriate skills and experience to support the joint sponsors in guiding the project to a successful conclusion.
