Fiber optic network for the control of 5 bridges from operating center Nieuwegein
The Province of Utrecht intends to realize a dark fiber optic network starting from 1 January 2025 that connects five bridges (Nieuwe Weteringbrug, Cronenburgherbrug, Vreelandbrug, Eembrug, Malebrug) with the operating center of the Municipality of Nieuwegein. Currently, these bridges are connected to the operating center of Waternet. The new network must provide a reliable, high-speed connection for the control and monitoring of the bridges, including redundancy and security. The procurement concerns a service contract, whereby the contractor is responsible for design, installation, testing, and aftercare. The procedure is a negotiated procedure without prior publication, meaning the province negotiates directly with selected suppliers. The assignment requires a high technical level in the fields of fiber optic installation, network architecture, and integration with existing systems.
