The contract will be funded from the company's own revenues and will run for one year, of which, six months upon the signing of the contract for the pre-feasibility study and another six months after Metrorex approves the feasibility study. Construction works on the new mainline will take seven to eight years.

Metrorex will set up an auction in March 2010 and interested bidders are expected to submit offers until March 4. The contract will be assigned to the bidder with the most advantageous financial offer, with the price accounting for 52% and the technical offer accounting for 48%.

To partake in the auction, bidders must submit a participation guarantee of RON830,000 and certify they have obtained an average turnover of at least RON110 million over the past three years.

Bidders must also certify they have carried out similar projects over the past three years, including a project for the drafting of a feasibility study on a new subway mainline or underground railroad, in urban areas, stretching onto at least six kilometers.

The new subway mainline will connect with all other operating and future mainlines and the average distance between stops will be of maximum 800 meters.
