The procurement process is at the planning stage, with a deadline for submission of the Selection Questionnaire set for 9th August 2017, while the contract is anticipated to commence in October 2017 and conclude by June 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for contractors specialising in civil engineering and construction works, particularly those skilled in managing complex infrastructure projects.

## Notice

Project Description - These works comprise the construction of the main community street in the Wichelstowe District Centre along with all the associated utilities works, drainage (including Swales) and landscaping.

As development gets under way in this area the District Centre will become an active construction site and we are seeking a contractor who can manage and liaise with a range of developers in order to ensure safe and efficient access across the site. It is anticipated that the value of the works will be in excess of PS2million. Details relating to the Services are provided in the tender documents.
