## Summary

Herefordshire Council has initiated a tender for the "Walking and Cycling Network Rangers" project, which aims to enhance pedestrian and cyclist experiences along the cycle paths of Hereford City. The procurement process is currently at the Award stage, with an active contract awarded to Bassitys Ltd valued at £26,000. The contract period spans from 1st April 2018 to 31st March 2020, following a tender period that closed on 23rd February 2018. This initiative is part of a broader Access Fund grant received from the Department for Transport, supporting the council’s aim of maintaining traffic-free routes in the West Midlands region.

This tender presents significant opportunities for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) particularly those specialising in environmental services, street cleaning, and maintenance. Businesses that can demonstrate expertise in improving urban pedestrian facilities or enhancing cycling infrastructures will find this contract particularly relevant. Engaging with this project not only contributes to community wellbeing but also positions a business to build long-term relationships with public sector organisations.
