Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the City of Wakefield commissioned works to upgrade and refurbish the old skate park on its existing footprint in Queens Park, Castleford. The work is landscaping and refurbishment of a skate park, rather than a new facility elsewhere. The location is specific: Queens Park in Castleford, within the Wakefield district. This requirement concerns public recreational infrastructure and is relevant to contractors experienced in skate-park construction or refurbishment, hard landscaping and associated site works. The council is the buyer, and the completed project provides a concrete example of the type of local leisure-facility improvement it procures.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to AXO Leisure Ltd. It was a single-lot works contract, using a below-threshold procurement route. The award is active and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 22 October 2026 and runs from 22 October to 30 December 2026. Its gross value is £82,500. The published procurement information does not set out evaluation criteria or a detailed selection basis, so the award basis cannot be characterised further. The project covers refurbishment of the existing skate park footprint at Queens Park, Castleford; no separate lot awards are recorded.

For suppliers tracking Wakefield’s recreational infrastructure requirements, this award demonstrates demand for focused skate-park refurbishment and landscaping within an existing park footprint. A credible competitor would need to show practical capability in skate-park works, including delivering an upgrade on a constrained, established site, and experience coordinating the associated landscaping and construction activity. The work is a single-site project of modest scale, suited to a specialist leisure-facility contractor or a general works contractor with relevant skate-park experience and delivery capacity. AXO Leisure Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise, was selected, showing that a supplier of this scale can deliver the requirement. The buyer is Wakefield Council, so relevant local-authority project experience and the ability to complete a defined public-realm works package would support credibility when comparable requirements return.
