Notice Description

Identification of sites in Stornoway area that may have potential to be developed as a road salt storage facility.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Comhairle Nan Eilean Siar is the unitary local authority for the Western Isles (Outer Hebrides) of Scotland. It is responsible for the provision of winter maintenance services throughout the area. Annual winter maintenance operations will use approximately 6000-8000T of road salt in Lewis and Harris. A significant element of the Comhairle's winter maintenance policy is the establishment of a permanent road salt storage facility in or around Stornoway with the capacity to store up to 8000T of road salt. The Comhairle is currently assessing the suitability of two potential sites for construction of the salt store and are seeking to confirm whether any other suitable sites in or around the Stornoway area are currently available for the Comhairle to purchase or lease. Suitable sites may be existing buildings or bareland green/brownfield sites, but should meet the following minimum criteria: -Sufficient space to store 6000-8000 tonnes of road salt. (This would equate to an approximate building footprint of 50m by 30m with an eaves height of around 7m) -Direct access to the public road network -Suitable for HGV access -Mains electricity and water connections on, or nearby, the site.
