## Notice

Successful Bidders will be required to clean out and clear existing grips and back ditches to full length by mechanical means using grip cutting machinery suitable for the activity. Existing grips and back ditches are not to be excavated (cleaned over 300mm deep) without following additional safe digging procedures. Under HSG47, the cleaning of grips (less than 300mm deep) is not deemed to be excavation and therefore can be carried out outside of this guidance. Provision of utility plans and use of cable scanning equipment are therefore not required for this 'cleaning' activity.
