This builds in some contingency for some work to continue into December if weather conditions allow. The project comprises a mixture of machine work and hand work techniques commonly used in peatland restoration projects. Site conditions at Abernethy should be considered. Much of the site is above 700mAOD, the site lies around 10km from the nearest public road and must be accessed by 4x4 vehicle track and ATV. The successful bidder must be prepared for the conditions and have rigorous health and safety procedures in place.",
