This tender presents significant growth opportunities for organisations specialising in environmental services, particularly those equipped to conduct CCTV inspections and maintenance of drainage systems.

Culverts need regular condition checks to ensure flow is not disrupted through the watercourse. The work will involve a full internal Closed Circuit TV inspections of the culvert by man entry, remote operation or any other technique deemed applicable/appropriate and agreed with the Employer detailing the service and structural condition and a report containing a summary of the condition of the culvert and defect report with grading, including clear and accurate factual data to enable future repair /remedial works to reduce flood risk. Carrying out this work allows us to understand the condition of the culverts, and identify any blockages or damage in the culverts which may increase flood risk to the surrounding area. The framework will also include the cleansing of culverts for removal of silt and/or blockage, including all necessary works to facilitate this, either pre-inspection or in tandem with the inspection process.
