UNSPSC 95121635: Railway tunnel

An underground or underwater passageway for a railway, completely enclosed except for openings for egress, commonly at each end.

UNSPSC 95121635 Railway tunnel is a Commodity code that does not reflect the recent state and local procurement activity actually appearing in the opportunities block. The code nominally describes railway infrastructure, but the recent solicitations tagged to this code span irrigation system installations, stormwater drainage improvements, medical center seismic compliance and renovation, fencing services, residential rehabilitation, bridge and culvert replacements, park improvements, trail construction, pavement rehabilitation, and utility relocation—none of which involve railway tunnel work. State and local procurement offices have consistently misapplied this code to general civil infrastructure and construction projects unrelated to its stated scope. The mismatch signals either a systematic tagging error in the upstream data or a significant gap between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local entities classify their actual buying activity.

The issuing bodies in the opportunity set span the full range of state and local jurisdictions: counties (Santa Clara, Orange, Pasco, Wayne, Williamson, Marion, Montgomery, Pinal, Broward), cities (DeBary, Dallas, Bartow, McKinney, Cibolo, Columbus), special districts (Sanitation District No. 2-3, Atlanta Beltline), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Bibb County Public Schools, DeKalb County), and independent authorities (Georgia World Congress Center Authority, Santa Clara Valley Medical Center). Geographic spread includes California (Santa Clara County, multiple seismic compliance projects), Florida (DeBary, Orange County, Pasco County, Broward County), Georgia (Atlanta, Columbus, DeKalb, Augusta, Macon), Texas (Dallas, Cibolo, Pinal County), Pennsylvania (Montgomery County), Arizona (Pinal County), and Michigan (Wayne County). Representative recent opportunities include the County of Santa Clara's O'Connor Hospital NPC 4/5 Seismic Compliance Project (prequalification due August 27, 2026; proposal due September 24, 2026, RFP format), Orange County's Condel Drive Drainage Improvements (bid due June 2, 2026, IFB format, $1,091,459.31 estimated cost), and the City of Dallas Water and Wastewater Main Replacements at 17 locations (sealed bid due June 5, 2026, mandatory pre-bid conference May 8, 2026, Davis-Bacon and SBE goals apply). The code shows no relevant recent activity and is not worth pursuing until the tagging issue is resolved with the data source.
