UCC issues tender for repair of the Mardyke athletics track - Jan 2025


In two previous posts in March of 2024, I covered the story of the closure of the UCC athletics track at the Mardyke in Co City based on safety concerns.

The ongoing saga of the Mardyke athletics track - March 2024

Mardyke track shut down with immediate effect due to safety concerns

The latest news is that on the 22nd of Jan 2025, UCC issued a tender for the replacement of the existing damaged track. 

"UCC hereby issues this information for Stage 1 Pre-Qualification Stage of a Two Stage Restricted Procedure for the Appointment of Works Contractors for Mardyke Track Refurbishment. The proposed works comprise the refurbishment of existing 8 lane non-porous athletics track comprising the removal and off-site disposal of all existing polymeric track and supply and installation of new track."

I'm not sure what the timeline is for this project but they usually take a lot longer that people expect. Late 2025? 2026?
