  • Contract Summary

    The Lower Thames Crossing (LTC) is a significant infrastructure project designed to address congestion and pollution at the Dartford Crossing, the only road crossing of the River Thames east of London. The project includes the construction of twin-bore tunnels and a dual carriageway linking the M25 at Junctions 28 and 30 to the A2, east of Gravesend. This opportunity focuses on vegetation clearance for the Kent Roads to enable ground investigation works, topographic surveys, and drainage/utility surveys. The works are planned for summer 2025. Scope of Works: The required vegetation clearance includes: • Cutting down trees, chipping the wood, and removing chippings from the site. • Tree surgery involving the removal of branches from large trees, chipping the wood, and removing chippings from the site. • Clearance of ground vegetation through strimming, with strimmed material removed from the site. Ecological Considerations: The works will be subject to checks by ecologists and adherence to ecological constraints, including: • Compliance with tree preservation orders. • Avoiding bird nesting season and considerations for protected species such as reptiles, great crested newts (GCN), and badgers. Competency Requirements: All operatives involved in the works must: • Be competent with relevant qualifications and competency cards (e.g., LANTRA/CSCS). • Hold a valid Highway Passport. Additional information: Please complete the attached expression of interest attachment accordingly and return to ltc-enquiries@skanska.co.uk.
