Tender offers for the engineering, procurement and construction of a 500kV electricity transmission line between Uzbekistan and Tajikistan are being invited.

The single circuit transmission line will link a substation in the south-eastern Uzbek district of Guzar and another in the western Tajik town of Regar, with a distance of 63.5km.

Uzbekistan has obtained financing from the Asian Development Bank, meaning the international competitive bidding for the project will be conducted in accordance with ADB's 'single-stage, one-envelope' bidding procedure.

The invitation is open to bidders from eligible source countries of the ADB and the project is expected to be completed within 12 months of the winning contract coming into effect.
