Notice Title

Wichelstowe Public Square & Footbridge

Notice Description

Swindon Borough Council invites expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced service providers for the provision of a new public square and footbridge at Wichelstowe. The works comprise new areas of public realm within the Wichelstowe District Centre including the delivery of drainage, paving, planting islands and street furniture in the square along with the steel footbridge and its landing structures. The bridge incorporates public art and the design has been developed with artist Sebastien Boyesen who will provide input during the construction phase. The District Centre will become an active construction site and the contractor will need to liaise with the managing contractor and adjoining developers to maintain a safe and efficient site. During construction the contractor will need to note the interfaces with the Hall and Woodhouse development and the works to both the road and canal which form the eastern and western boundaries and which are under construction. The Hall and Woodhouse pub / restaurant is programmed to open in early 2019 and it is therefore essential that these works are delivered to provide access to the building. It is anticipated that the value of the works will be in excess of PS2million with the works commencing in June 2018. Full details relating to the Works are provided in the tender documents. To participate, Suppliers will need to Register as a Supplier with ProContract, www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk, then Register an Interest before obtaining access to the tender documents.
