## Summary

The Wakefield Council has completed a procurement process for the provision of Artist Project Management Service. This project involves managing three artists for the creation of public art works around Castleford Rail Station in Yorkshire and the Humber region, funded by the Department for Transport and Network Rail. The contract, valued at £29,977.50 GBP, was awarded to Public Arts trading as BEAM, with a contract period starting on May 17, 2024, and ending on January 31, 2025.

This opportunity to provide project management consultancy services for public art creation is suitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Businesses in these categories that can offer artistic services, project management, and artistic expertise are well-suited to compete in this open tender process, which aims to enhance the travel experience of rail station users and promote active travel routes to reduce car emissions in the area.

## Notice

Wakefield Council have appointed a project management organisation to help manage three artists from inception to completion (delivery of public art works) across Castleford. The locations surround Castleford Rail Station, and the funding is supplied by the Department for Transport and Network Rail, as part of their First and Last Mile Programme. The programme aims to enhance the experience for users of the rail station, promote active travel routes and therefore reduce the number of car miles and emissions when travelling to stations. Four key pedestrian and cycle routes have been identified, with 3 of those requiring public art works.
