This project falls under the category of site preparation work, with an estimated value of £50,000. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period closes on 16th April 2018 for expressions of interest, with submission deadlines set for 23rd April 2018 and evaluations to be completed by 26th April 2018. The work will require careful handling around existing graves on the site and will facilitate further development for housing. This tender presents a significant opportunity for contractors specialising in site preparation and clearance, particularly those experienced in sensitive areas such as cemetery sites. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as they can bring agility and focused expertise to the project. Businesses with capabilities in vegetation removal, waste management, and ground assessments would be particularly well-suited to compete in this tender, paving the way for potential future contracts in the housing development sector. ## Notice Tunbridge Wells Borough Council is inviting tenders from suitably experienced contractors for the clearance of its Benhall Mill Road site. The site contains storage buildings used as a depot for the cemetery and as a store for other lessees from time to time as granted by The Council. The site has an area of 0.52 Hectares, and the location is shown on the map in appendix A. The Council are considering developing the land for housing and the clearance of the surplus soil, vegetation and accumulation of materials across the site over many years is required in order to enable further site investigation of below ground conditions and topography. The site is NOT consecrated, however there are records showing that 16 graves lie within the site. See layout in appendix A. Clearance of vegetation and materials in the vicinity of the existing graves will require care and supervision with no reduction of existing ground levels in these areas. Inspections of the depot for pricing purposes are only allowed with prior consent and with a representative of TWBC in attendance.
