Notice Information

Notice Title

Gully Cleansing Services

Notice Description

Westmorland and Furness Council requires assistance from an external supplier, to provide support with gully cleansing services on the Priority 1 and Priority 2 winter gritting routes. The Council has in house gully cleansing capability; however, resources are limited, and internal operations teams are struggling to keep up with demand on both routine and reactive gully works. Moving into autumn and winter months, the demand on the service increases as weather conditions deteriorate. There is a greater risk of hazards presented by surface water runoff and flooding from blocked drains, which increases the risk of ice during freezing conditions.
