New clarification added: Question 7: Bus Category 1 and Category 2 requests as a "mandatory option" “Rear pintle hook and/or hitch ball drawbar for trailer with electric connections”.The manufacturer advised that Bus tructures do not use girder style construction at the rear as most buses are built with a unitary body. Can this be removed as a mandatory requirement?Clarification 7: Most brands falling into category 1 and 2 are able to connect a light trailer. The rear pintle hook and/or hitch bar with electric connection is meant for a light trailer with a GVW of max 3500 kg.Question 8: Would it be possible to please extend the deadline for submission by one week to July 12, 2021?/Please kindly extend the bid deadline to 20th of July. Because a lot of documents will need to be prepared. Clarification 8.Please refer to Clarification 1. Currently there is no expectation to extend the deadline.
