## Summary

Wiltshire Council is seeking to replace the Warminster Highways Depot through the open procurement process identified as WO0921. This project is classified under the construction work category and is set to take place in Warminster, England. The tender has recently been awarded to Rigg Construction (Southern) Ltd, with the contract period starting on 1st July 2021 and ending on 31st March 2022. The project value is approximately £3,399,572, and it aims to enhance the distribution and storage capabilities for the Council’s gritter fleet and road salt reserves, responding to operational deficiencies in the current facilities. The tender period concluded on 15th January 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those specialising in infrastructure development and facility upgrades. Companies that can provide effective solutions for efficient storage and operational logistics would be well-positioned to compete for similar future projects. With the emphasis on improving winter maintenance capabilities, contractors experienced in climate-resilient construction and sustainable practices may find themselves at a competitive advantage in this evolving market landscape.

## Notice

The Council has identified a need for a more efficient distribution of its 36 strong gritter vehicle fleet as well as appropriate and effective storage of its road salt reserves; it is well provided for in the east of the county but utilises historic infrastructure in the west. The current facilities are either non-compliant or fail to meet operational needs in terms of location, access or salt storage capacity which further hampers the service ability to respond to sudden changing weather conditions. A strategic review of the delivery of the statutory requirement for winter maintenance has resulted in the decision to close the current highways salt stores at Mere and Semington and to relocate and enhance the provision in alternative locations. It has also been determined that the site at Warminster offers the best combination of access and location whilst making the best use of existing assets.
