## Summary

The South Downs National Park Authority is overseeing a procurement process titled "Repair and drainage improvements, South Downs Way National Trail, Washington Bostal - AWARD," classified under the "Drainage and surface works" industry category (CPV: 45232451). This project, located in the South East region of the United Kingdom (postal code GU29 9DH), focuses on repairing a section of the South Downs Way National Trail that has deteriorated due to heavy use and surface water erosion. The procurement stage is at the Award phase, with the contract period starting on 2nd September 2024 and ending on 30th September 2024. The awarded contract is valued at GBP 31,050, issued to Barcombe Landscapes Ltd. The tender was conducted using an Open procedure, making it accessible to a wide range of businesses.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in civil engineering, particularly those experienced in drainage and surface work. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the suitability criteria. The project's scope, including repairing pathways, drainage improvements, and installation of new bridle gates, offers growth potential for companies capable of delivering high-quality outdoor infrastructure projects. Businesses with expertise in landscape maintenance, path construction, and water management systems are well-positioned to benefit from such contracts, expanding their portfolios and contributing to the preservation of a popular national trail.

## Notice

The South Downs Way National Trail (SDW) is a 100 mile long-distance path that spans the entire length of the South Downs National Park. It is a mainly off-road route that is comprised of public rights of way and is well used by walkers, cyclists, and equestrians all-year round. We have identified a section of path that has deteriorated from heavy use and surface water erosion. This section requires repair and drainage improvements to maintain the high standard of access along the National Trail. We also require the removal of a horse stile along with some small-scale landscaping to allow sufficient room to install a new bridle gate and 15 metres of post and rail fencing.
