Notice Information

Notice Title

Redesign and Build BMX/Pump Track

Notice Description

The Skatepark Complex, incorporating the BMX track and skatepark, is in need of improvement but due to the size of the project the work is being phased. Phase 1 is the upgrading of the existing BMX track. An exciting project that will enhance the overall experience for riders and attract more enthusiasts. Okehampton Town Council has assessed the current condition of the BMX track and gathered feedback from the local community and riders. The BMX track was constructed in the early 2000's and the surface is now deteriorating. It has been repaired over the intervening years by the Town Council's Parks Team but now requires more substantial improvement for health and safety reasons. The design must incorporate a variety of elements suitable for different skill levels, riding styles and include features that make the track inclusive for those with disabilities, while prioritising safety and the prevention of accidents. The track needs to be tarmacked, or other suitable surface, as the current surface erodes more quickly in bad weather making it less stable and safety of riders is compromised. Sustainable materials and practices must be used where possible in the upgrade, to reduce the environmental impact of the facility as well as improving drainage and surface water flow. We are looking for a design and build tender for a BMX/MTB/Skate Asphalt surfaced pump track on the footprint of the existing BMX track which is approximately 300m in length. The track needs to cater for all abilities, whilst challenging experienced riders and being safe for beginners as well as being suitable for use for scooters and skateboards.
