## Notice

Gloucestershire County Council undertake a coring programme on various road sites on an annual basis.

The scope of works is: * The depth of existing carriageway bituminous layers. * Establish if tar is present in the carriageway construction. * If tar is suspected that it is tested to establish the PAH content. We will be using the NEC 4 Engineering and Construction Short contract. The works will be located across the County. Duration is 2 years.
