## Summary

The Portsmouth City Council has awarded a significant contract for the North Portsea Island Coastal Defence Scheme - Phase 3, focusing on flood defence works at Tipner Lake, located in Portsmouth, United Kingdom. This procurement, classified under the category of coastal-defence works (CPV Code: 45243000), follows a selective procurement method and was formally awarded on April 7, 2017.

Interested parties were required to submit expressions of interest before October 17, 2016, to participate in this project.

This tender presents excellent opportunities for construction firms, particularly those specialising in coastal and civil engineering works, as well as companies involved in landscaping and footpath construction. Businesses that are well-suited to compete should have experience with reinforced concrete structures and environmental projects, as the project involves the demolition of existing seawalls, construction of new coastal defences, and the enhancement of public spaces. The overall contract value is approximately £10.5 million, indicating a substantial opportunity for contractors in the sector.

## Notice

Portsmouth City Council - the 'Authority' - is embarking upon a major programme of coastal defence construction. The programme of works is part of the North Portsea Island Coastal Flood Defence Scheme which aims to reduce the risk of coastal flooding and erosion to the area over the next 100 years. The Authority is now seeking to appoint a contractor via this procurement exercise to deliver Phase 3 of the programme which will cover flood defence works at Tipner Lake from the Mountbatten Centre, Twyford Avenue to the Ports Creek Roundabout.

The works will comprise a combination of: c. 300mm thick seawall encasement of the existing defences to extend below the existing foreshore level; replacement of the seawall in the southern area of the site where the existing wall is showing signs of structural movement and is considered of too poor a condition to encase; and local re-alignment of the frontage in this southern area where required. There is the opportunity to create a terraced embankment, an environmental zone, seaward of the defences to the north of the site. The scope of the works at summary level comprise of the following elements, but may not be limited to; o Demolition and removal of existing seawall in the southern section of the site; o Construction of vertical reinforced seawall, including sheet pile and bearing pile installation with local realignment; o Encasement of the existing seawall in the northern area of the site; o The existing footpath / cycleway behind the seawall will be reconstructed as part of the works; o Landscape works to provide appropriate & separate external spaces, including new access points to a public footpath. The target construction commencement date for the Tipner Lake works is April 2017 with a completion date of October 2018, excluding landscaping works which must be completed by February 2019.
