## Notice

Planned maintenance works on a number of rockfaces / vegetated slopes between Torrington and Bideford on the A386 at 3 separate locations; North of Beam Quarry, Ridd and Landcross. Works are to include vegetation clearance and scaling of existing slopes and rock faces, assisting with Geotechnical Inspection and then to undertake any subsequent remedial works required. This work is part of a wider programme and the Contractor will need to start within 2 weeks of the contract start date. Other slope stabilisation works are planned on this section of the highway, which this forms part of the whole project.
