Originally named the A11 technology Corridor, the project has been re-branded the 'Cambridge Norwich Technology Corridor' (CTNC) to reflect the ambition to be inclusive of partners at either end of the corridor; Cambridge and Norwich. After an initial feasibility study, the group is seeking revised analysis and reporting on Economic Area & Growth Potential for the expanded area. On behalf of the CNTC Project Group, Breckland Council wishes to engage Consultancy services to deliver the following outcomes; o Establish the economic position across defined geography o Estimated growth potential o Summarise major employment & housing sites o Sector analysis & growth propositions o Identification of major infrastructure projects o Understanding CTNC in context with other growth activity in the region Additional information: To view this contract opportunity, prospective suppliers must first register on the Councils electronic tendering portal https://in-tendhost.co.uk/southhollandcouncil/aspx/Home .
