The procurement seeks to address safety concerns following an embankment movement at Drag Road Byway, Symonds Yat, discovered during an inspection in December 2023. Essential milestones and documents related to this tender are available for potential interested parties. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in ground-stabilisation, particularly those experienced with soil nailing techniques and operating with small specialist equipment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are especially encouraged to express their interest, as this project requires unique solutions due to the challenging narrow road conditions around Symonds Yat.

Interested businesses should contact Elisabeth Wyllie at Balfour Beatty for further information and to discuss potential collaboration. ## Notice Balfour Beatty on behalf of the client Herefordshire Council require a subcontractor who can provide a proposed soft nails solution (soil nailing) . Background: In December 2023, an inspection of Drag Road Byway, Symonds Yat, found that there had been movement of the embankment causing the road to move, which is a safety concern. A full emergency closure of this section was put in place. Site visits from geotechnical specialists and topographical surveys confirmed that a failure had occurred within the slope below the concrete edge beam/retaining structure that forms the edge of the highway towards its northern end of the structure. This failure appears to have been constrained by the low point within the crest of rock out crop below Drag Road. As a result of the failure a width of approximately 4.75m of the underside of the edge beam/retaining structure has been exposed Proposed solution: Soil nails as per draft drawings. The location and roads around Symonds Yat are very narrow 2.5-3m wide in places. This will need small specialist equipment to undertake the works. If interested in this package of works, please contact Elisabeth Wyllie.
