Notice Information

Notice Title

Chesterfield Canal Partnership - Canal Corridor Masterplan

Notice Description

The Chesterfield Canal Partnership is seeking to prepare a new Masterplan to provide a strategic framework for the regeneration of the Chesterfield Canal between Chesterfield and Kiveton Park. The works will take place in three stages to broadly align with HM Treasury Green Book guidance: - Stage 1 will be a programme-level Strategic Outline Business Case - Stage 2 will be determined from Stage 1, and is broadly expected to be derived of four sub-programme level Outline Business Cases - one for each of the three local authority regions, and a thematic case for boat moorings and water-based development covering the full length of the Masterplan. - Stage 3 will be determined from Stage 2, and is broadly expected to be derived of a number of Full Business Cases at individual project or smaller sub-programme levels. The Chesterfield Canal Partnership is seeking consultants for two elements of the above via this opportunity: - Stage 1: Programme-level Strategic Outline Business Case - Stage 2: One of the four Outline Business Cases, for the North East Derbyshire local authority region. The remaining elements of Stage 2 and all of Stage 3 will be commissioned at a later date. The tender documents are attached to this notice and are available from the Chesterfield Canal Trust, which is managing the procurement on behalf of the Chesterfield Canal Partnership.
