Summary of the contracting process

South Ribble Borough Council commissioned construction work at Fossdale Moss in Leyland to create a new stone multi-use track linking to the existing track and forming a loop through the meadow areas. The work also includes installing one horse-friendly vehicle barrier gate and three bridle gates. At Blaydike Moss, the existing path is to be scraped by 10mm and redressed with suitable stone, then widened by one metre. The requirement combines new track construction, path resurfacing and widening, and installation of access-control gates. Delivery is in the South Ribble area of Lancashire.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Landscape Engineering Ltd. The council used limited competition for this below-threshold works contract, with one lot. The contract was signed on 27 July 2026 and runs from 27 July to 7 September 2026. Its value is £50,400 excluding VAT (£63,000 including VAT). The award is active and the contract is active. The published procurement information does not set out the evaluation criteria or a scored basis for selecting the supplier.

This award shows demand from South Ribble Borough Council for small-scale public-access route improvements combining stone track construction, path maintenance and widening, and installation of horse-friendly barriers and bridle gates. Suppliers competing for similar work would need to demonstrate practical capability in laying and finishing stone paths, connecting new routes to existing tracks, and carrying out surface preparation and redressing to a specified depth. Experience working in meadow or mossland settings and delivering safe, usable access for walkers and horse riders would be relevant to this exact requirement. The successful supplier is a small or medium-sized business, indicating that a firm of that scale secured the work; the award does not establish that a particular business size or accreditation was required.
