Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council commissioned works to construct a new tarmac footpath leading to and around the rugby pitch at Gelligaled Park. The requirement covers footpath construction work, including surfacing and associated construction activity needed to provide the route around the pitch. The work is for a public park and sports facility in the Rhondda Cynon Taf area of Wales. This is a small, local civil engineering and surfacing requirement suited to contractors that deliver paved pedestrian routes, tarmac surfaces and related external works. The contracting authority is Rhondda Cynon Taf CBC, a sub-central public authority. The completed requirement concerns one package of works rather than a wider programme of park or sports-ground improvements.

The procurement has completed and the contract was awarded to JD Surfacing & Construction Ltd, an SME. It used a below-threshold limited competition under a limited procurement method. There was one completed lot. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026 and has a gross value of £39,538.20, with a net value of £32,948.50, in GBP. The contract period runs from 26 July 2026 to 31 August 2026, covering a short construction programme. The awarded scope is footpath construction at Gelligaled Park rugby pitch. The contract remains recorded as active, and the supplier selected for the works was JD Surfacing & Construction Ltd. The process was conducted under the Welsh devolved procurement regulations.

This award demonstrates local authority demand for compact, time-limited surfacing and civil engineering projects at public parks and sports facilities. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical experience constructing tarmac footpaths, preparing and surfacing pedestrian routes, and working around an operational or established rugby facility. Relevant capability includes site setting-out, ground preparation, drainage coordination where required by the specification, safe segregation of construction activity and delivery of durable finishes. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that a smaller contractor with suitable equipment, labour and project management capacity can compete for this scale of requirement. Businesses should be able to evidence completed footpath or external surfacing projects, reliable short-programme delivery and the ability to work for a Welsh local authority under a limited-competition route.
