Notice Title

Christmas Lighting Scheme for Leighton-Linslade Town Council 2018-2020

Notice Description

LEIGHTON-LINSLADE TOWN COUNCIL CHRISTMAS LIGHTS - INVITATION TO TENDER You are invited to offer a fully detailed visualisation proposal and financial tender for the delivery and maintenance of the Christmas Lighting scheme in Leighton-Linslade, Bedfordshire, which will run for three years from 2018 to 2020 inclusive. Please submit your quote by post 17.00, Friday 18th May 2018 to: Ms Vivien Cannon, Head of Cultural and Economic Services Leighton-Linslade Town Council, The White House, Hockliffe Street, Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire. LU7 1HD E-mail: vivien.cannon@leightonlinslade-tc.gov.uk DL: 01525 631924 Should you wish to undertake a site visit with a council officer, appointments must be made between Thursday 19th April and Friday 4 th May 2018 inclusive. When providing your quote, please state whether you undertook a site visit if an officer was not present. INTRODUCTION Leighton Buzzard is an old market town hosting weekly Tuesday and Saturday markets amongst a mix of independent and larger brand name shops within the setting of a traditional High Street. The High Street mixes conservation status buildings with mews areas and shopping alleyways. It easily plays host to events, one being the annual thee-day Christmas Festival when the Christmas Lights are switched on. It is the ambition of the Council to create a cohesive visual link between the three main areas within the town for Christmas lighting, being: a) The area of shops/road junction at Linslade (Wing Road, Old Road and Leighton Road). b) West Street / Leighton Roads from the above junction to the Leston Road / Hockliffe Street roundabout junction and Billington Road, (Inc. the roundabout). c) The town centre with 5 entry points, Lake, Hockliffe, North, Friday (Ropa Court) and Bridge Streets including Church Square, with the Peacock shopping mews and alleyway areas. d) The other side of North Street beyond the roundabout junction of West Street. The use of a consistent and strong visual scheme is envisaged to be a key link between all the areas stated above. The Council would like to see an innovative approach that provides 'visual movement' in the display chosen and one that pushes the decoration beyond the area of electricity supply points and maintains a visual flow of light around the town centre. Parts of the scheme should create focal points of spectacle. SCHEME BUDGET The Council has a budget of PS90k over the 3-year period of the contract. (PS30k per year- to include contingency budget). Applicants should be minded that the budget will need to cover the costs of call-outs, infrastructure repair and so on. You are strongly advised to allocate a reasonable sum of money for the unexpected. Applicants will note that the tender is in three parts: a) Main scheme b) Christmas tree lights c) Variant Bid
