Notice Title

Playgrounds Installation Framework

Notice Description

Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council has awarded a framework for the supply and install of playground equipment and related groundworks to various existing playgrounds in the County Borough.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The Council currently manages 51 fixed play areas throughout the county borough. Many of these facilities are coming to the end of their useful life and in need of refurbishment. The Council recognises the importance of play for the health and wellbeing of children and young people and for physical, social, mental and emotional aspects of life In August 2021 the Council set aside capital provision to allow a refurbishment programme over five years An accelerated capital programme was approved by Council in March 2022. This means a capital spend of 518,000 GBP per annum over the five year period. This accelerated programme will enable the council to refurbish between 5 and 7 sites per year (depending on value) for the next four years based on an approximate cost of 70,000 GBP to 100,000 GBP per site for a standard Locally Equipped Area for Play (LEAP). Where a Neighbourhood Equipped Area for Play (NEAP) has been recommended the minimum cost per site should be between 140,000 GBP and 200,000 GBP per site. There are six NEAP sites recommended on the priority list. The selection and prioritisation of sites has been based on condition surveys, inspections and from assessing other factors such as the extent of repairs required, age, condition, realistic lifespan and play value. The scope is contained in the attached specification document
