For feeding geese, the Contractor should allow for up to a minimum of 5 days standing time in the event that works need to be halted. The site will be surveyed 30 minutes prior to construction and if feeding geese found construction works will be cancelled for the day. For badger protection, the Contractor shall be required to attend a site briefing regarding badger protection. The Contractor should note that the following work items will be carried out by the client which may be at the same time of the footpath construction works. These are: - Woodland Management Works (Removal & Planting); In addition to the works noted on the drawings, the Contractor should include for the following items: - Clearance of all trees / redundant fence lines and other obstructions to allow construction of the permanent footpath works. - Reinstatement / grass seeding to all detailed areas. - Works to the value noted in the 'Short Schedule Contingency Allowance'. - Inspection by client archaeologist during topsoil strip operations.
