Notice Title

GB-Colchester: Mastereplanning

Notice Description

Colchester Borough Council and Essex County Council wish to appoint an experienced consultancy to prepare an overarching vision, illustrative masterplan, and urban design strategy for the Town Centre, and to lead the community engagement work to ensure these outcomes are co-designed with those who care about our Place. We require a mix of disciplines for this including spatial zoning, master planning, transport planning, urban design, regeneration, and engagement. Such engagement is a key element of this for us. We want to ensure this is an inclusive process for residents, visitors, businesses, and stakeholders alike to ensure communities and those who care about the Town Centre have a meaningful and sustained ability to shape how it develops. The successful bid will need to use a creative variety of engagement methods to ensure diversity with seldom heard and marginalised groups given the opportunity to be included in shaping our town centre. Full details of this opportunity are detailed in the tender documents. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
