UNM taking bids for tunnel security project
NMBW Staff

The University of New Mexico is seeking bids for a security upgrade of the six miles of access tunnels that undergird the campus.

The purpose of the security system is to limit access to the tunnels, which have entry points at 34 doors or gates and 42 hatches. The system will include a computerized control center, doors or gates that will record who is going into the tunnels and when they are going in, and infrastructure linking the control center and the doors. It also might include hatches and cameras.

A mandatory pre-proposal conference and walkthrough is scheduled for 9 a.m. Friday, April 11, at the Ford Utilities Center, building 116. Interested parties should RSVP at least three days in advance to (505) 277-2465.
