## Summary

The Devon County Council is seeking to undertake the "CP1703-19 North Devon Link Road Advance Planting" project, classified under the agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural and apicultural services category. The procurement process is in the award stage, with the contract awarded on 30th May 2019, following a tender period that concluded on 12th April 2019.
