The project involved the installation of new play equipment and safety surfacing, categorised under the "works" industry. It took place in Bradford, United Kingdom (region UKE41). This open competition was conducted below the threshold with a key tender deadline on 28 November 2025 and culminated in an award notice published on 7 January 2026.
