## Summary

The Bedford Borough Council has awarded the 'Wixams Ecology Works Package' tender to Nationwide Engineering T/A Nationwide Rail Ltd. The tender, classified under Earthmoving work, involved site preparation work, scrub-removal work, and fences. It had a total value of £250,000 and a minimum value of £150,000.
