Summary

Machine-generated summary

This EU tender seeks research and development services for a project on vegetation-based measures to reduce the risk of embankment fires along railway lines. Heat and drought periods increasingly cause fires and rail disruptions. The project involves identifying suitable plants, testing their fire behaviour in laboratories, and field-testing prototypes over multiple growing seasons. The buyer is the DZSF in Germany. The goal is to provide scientifically sound solutions for planning, constructing, and maintaining railway lines to improve operational safety and climate resilience. Information on the estimated value, submission deadline, and specific bidding procedure is not provided in the current tender description.

Description

Zunehmende Hitze- und Dürreperioden erhöhen das Risiko von Böschungsbränden entlang von Bahnstrecken und führen regelmäßig zu Störungen im Schienenverkehr. Bisher fehlen praxistaugliche Konzepte, um dieses Risiko wirksam zu reduzieren. Ziel des Projekts ist die Entwicklung und Erprobung vegetationsbasierter Brandbarrieren an Bahnböschungen. Dafür werden geeignete Pflanzen identifiziert, experimentell auf ihr Brandverhalten untersucht und in Labor- sowie Praxisversuchen getestet. Anschließend wird ein Prototyp unter realen Bedingungen über mehrere Vegetationsperioden beobachtet. Das Vorhaben soll wissenschaftlich fundierte und anwendbare Lösungen liefern, die bei Planung, Ausbau und Instandhaltung von Bahnstrecken eingesetzt werden können. Damit trägt es zur Verbesserung der Betriebssicherheit und zur Stärkung der Klimaresilienz der Schieneninfrastruktur bei. Siehe Angaben unter Punkt 2 "Verfahren"
