EXPRESSIONS of Interest are being sought to participate in the selection of suitably experienced and qualified Building Contractors and Earthworks Contractors for the construction of the new harness racing facility at Wagga.  HRNSW has placed advertisements in the Riverina and is keen to see the building process begin on time.

HRNSW Chief Executive John Dumesny believes the announcement should be exciting for the industry in the local area.

“It is very fulfilling we are edging closer to turning the first sod of soil on the new harness racing facility at Wagga Wagga,” Mr Dumesny said.

“The Riverina deserves a racing complex equal to what HRNSW has provided at Bathurst and when completed it will be a benefit not only for the industry but for the community of Wagga Wagga.”

The EOI’s will be used to determine a select tender list for the project and must be received by McKinnon Design before 5pm Monday June 6.

“This is going to be a state of the art complex, a new clubhouse, grandstand, race stalls and track will be built and it should be good news for all of the participants in the region.”

EOI’s can be sent to McKinnon Design at PO Box 1929, Orange NSW 2800.  For more information contact McKinnon Design on (02) 63631780 or info@mckinnondesign.com.au

Harness Racing NSW (HRNSW) is the controlling body for harness racing in New South Wales with responsibility for commercial and regulatory management of the industry including 31 racing clubs across the State.  HRNSW is headed by an industry-appointed Board of Directors and is independent of Government.
