## Summary

Halton Borough Council has completed a direct procurement process for the "Widnes Town Centre Redevelopment Framework," an initiative aimed at revitalising the town centre. The project, which falls under the industry category of "Architectural, engineering and planning services," is valued at £96,063 and will be executed by the supplier Walker Sime. The contract period starts on 2nd September 2024 and ends on 31st March 2025, with work focused in England. The procurement stage is in the 'Award' phase as of 24th September 2024. The primary goal is to create an integrated regeneration framework to guide the redevelopment, incorporating both public and private sector-led projects.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly SMEs, specialising in architectural, engineering, and planning services. Given the focus on both public and private sector projects, companies with expertise in urban planning, revitalisation, and community-focused development are well-suited to compete. The framework aims to enhance the quality of life in Widnes Town Centre, ensuring sustainable and vibrant community development, thereby providing substantial growth prospects for businesses involved in regeneration and development projects.

## Notice

We are purchasing a Regeneration Framework which will take Widnes Town Centre from Vision stage to the identification of delivery projects. The Framework will supplement the Local Plan to drive forward a regeneration programme for the Town Centre, incorporating both projects where it is necessary for the Council to take the lead, and also to identify and promote projects where the private sector will take the lead- ensuring it all works together to create a place that improves quality of life for the community. The end product will be a Regeneration Framework in the form of an online and physical document that will be in the public domain.
