## Summary

The Kent County Council has awarded a contract for the project titled "SC22180 - White Cliffs of Dover Footpath Surfacing" to Lamb-Latore Ltd. The procurement process was conducted through a selective tender procedure, with a contract value of £137,361.58 GBP. The contract period is scheduled to start on October 3, 2022, and end on October 2, 2023. The tender period ended on September 16, 2022, with a contract period from September 18, 2022, to September 25, 2023. The project falls under the CPV codes for construction structures and materials and construction work, under the works main procurement category.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specializing in construction and related services to engage in the restoration and improvement of the White Cliffs of Dover footpath. Companies with expertise in construction, ecological restoration, and heritage preservation would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The project aims to create a surfaced walking route along the cliffs, enhancing accessibility, preserving ecological sites, and boosting tourism. Businesses interested in sustainable development projects with a focus on environmental protection and heritage conservation could benefit significantly from participating in this tender.

## Notice

Kent County Council are looking for a tenderer that can create a surfaced all year walking route along the White Cliffs of Dover National Trust. The route will not only increase numbers to the site but having a singular route that is easy to follow will mean the ecology of the site can remain safe and grow back to what it was before. The coastal path is a popular and heavily used route which stretches along the White Cliffs of Dover, used throughout the year by local walkers and visitors. As a result, the surface has become significantly worn and damaged in places. The path traverses an area of ecological importance and historical significance, as well as being recognised for its landscape heritage. By carrying out sensitive repairs and improvements to the surface, it will maintain access across the cliffs which protects the ecology, allows safe an accessible passage and supports continued and longer-term tourism, as well as sustainable economic, environmental and social benefits. Furthermore, the improvements will facilitate and mitigate the expected increase in the number of people using the route, together with significantly reducing further damage to the landscape. Kent County Council (KCC) Public Rights of Way has received a grant from the Experience Project to construct a surfaced footpath along the White Cliffs of Dover from the Visitor Centre to the Lighthouse. By creating this route, we hope to boost tourism to the area as you will be able to easily walk along the cliffs for the entire year in all weathers. The site is always very busy so please be mindful that you will have to factor in how the public are managed when pricing for the works. For health and safety reasons we do not want any alternative routes to be closer to the cliffs so they must all run north of the Public Right of Way.
