## Notice

Bidders are asked to submit a formal tender for the "Quayside Improvement Works". National Museums Liverpool (NML) is embarking on a decade of transformation to its Waterfront estate. As part of this evolution is the desire to make more of the estate publicly accessible allowing visitors to experience more of the Liverpool waterfront and its heritage. In early 2021 the main South Quay of the Canning Dock was opened to public use and hosted the River of Light Rainbow Bridge installation. Building on this initial success NML is now looking to make more of the Canning Dock quaysides open to public access, through opening up the Central and Northern Quaysides. National Museums Liverpool (NML) is seeking the appointment of a Contractor to undertake a package of works to the Canning Dock Quayside areas to allow opening up of the spaces for public use. The works comprise of the below key elements: - Installation of black powder coated pedestrian barriers along two quaysides to prevent unauthorised access to the dry docks and the main Canning Dock - Installation of suitably securable access gates to prevent unauthorised access to the top ends of both quaysides - Installation of high level fencing to the area between the Great Western Railway building and sub-station building - Installation of new LED lighting to the existing lamp stands - Cleaning and making good of the current cobbled surfaces - Repair and repaint the existing storage containers - Repair and cladding of the existing Portacabin - Installation of security cages to the tar boiler and electrical location cabinets - Installation of warning signage throughout the site - Removal and disposal of debris from the site A detailed overview of the scope of works is attached as Appendix C to this Tender.
