Description

This tender concerns a river restoration project near Gelnhausen, Hessen, Germany. The core task involves reconnecting three existing oxbow lakes (Altarmen) to the Kinzig River. This likely entails excavation to create channels, construction of weirs or other flow control structures, and possibly bank stabilization work. The trade specified is landscaping, suggesting a significant element of habitat restoration and planting after the primary engineering works are complete. The project's complexity will depend on the existing topography, the length and depth of the required connecting channels, and any specific ecological requirements for the reconnection. The absence of a published contract value necessitates careful investigation of the tender documents to assess project scope and required resources. The deadline for submission is relatively short (one month), demanding a quick turnaround for bid preparation.
