Summary

Machine-generated summary

TRAVYS SA is procuring engineering and installation services for the overhead contact line on the metric gauge railway between Yverdon-les-Bains and Sainte Croix in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland. Works cover two sections: Lot 1 between Valeyres-sous-Montagny and Essert-sous-Champvent, where most contact line masts and the whole catenary will be renewed during the 2027 summer works period, and Lot 2 between Le Bey and La Brinaz, where some masts will be repositioned and renewed while the existing catenary is retained. Services follow SIA, VSS, DE-OCF and RTE standards.

Description

Le présent appel d'offres concerne les prestations d’ingénierie et de montage de ligne de contact au sens des normes SIA, VSS, DE-OCF et RTE pour le Renouvellement de la voie entre Valeyres et Essert et entre le Bey et la Brinaz resp. Lot 1 et Lot 2. Les deux secteurs de travail sont situés sur la ligne reliant Yverdon-les-Bains à Sainte Croix dans le canton de Vaud. Ligne exploitée par TRAVYS SA. Pour le Lot 1 entre Valyeres-sous-Montagny et Essert-sous-Champvent (KM 4,130 à 5,350), des travaux de création d’infrastructure ferroviaire modifiant le tracé de la ligne sont prévus lors du clustering de l’été 2027 afin d’augmenter la vitesse de la ligne sur ce secteur particulier. Des travaux préliminaires de GC interviendront dès l’été 2026. Concernant la partie LC, il est prévu de renouveler une grande partie des mâts LC, et l’entier de la caténaire durant le clustering 2027. Pour le Lot 2, entre Le Bey et La Brinaz (KM 1,415 à 2,040), des travaux de création d’infrastructure ferroviaire sont prévus lors du clustering de l’été 2027. De plus, un réaménagement des carrefours routiers sont prévus au niveau des 2 PN Le Bey, et Marché-de-Gros. Ceux-ci engendrant des conflits entre les installations ferroviaires et les zones de circulations prévues, un nouveau calepinage des mâts LC dans le secteur est prévu. Concernant la partie LC, il est prévu de renouveler une minorité de mâts LC, et de conserver l’entier de la caténaire durant le clustering 2027.
