Notice Information

Notice Title

Whickham Retaining Wall

Notice Description

A survey has recently been carried out at Whickham Police Station to assess the condition of the retaining third party wall. The survey outlined that the wall was deemed unsafe, therefore there is a requirement to demolish the wall and rebuild a retaining wall using he design attached (Appendix A) which considers the current ground conditions and site constraints, such as site access and the presence of both the domestic residencies and the substation. The foliage behind the wall should also be removed and disposed of. Due to the location of the retaining wall the Contractor must ensure that the relevant areas are hand dug and protection of the live mains cable is considered. The Customer will NOT be responsible for any risks associated with identifying and marking the route of the live cable and any additional costs associated with this need must be included within your quotation.
