## Summary

Witchford Parish Council is in the planning stage of procuring construction services for the project titled "NEW SUBSURFACE GEOCELL PATH AND RESTORATION OF SURFACE." This initiative falls under the construction work industry category and is located in the East of England, United Kingdom. The project aims to install subsurface plastic geocell grids and restore the surface along the grassed section of Restricted Byway No2 in Witchford. The budget for the project is £10,000, and it will ensure compliance with British Horse Society safety requirements. The contract period is scheduled from 1st June 2025 to 1st October 2025, with the procurement process expected to follow an open procedure below the threshold. A future notice is set to be published on 27th February 2025.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in construction work, particularly those experienced with geocell grids and green path restoration. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, making this an ideal opportunity for local contractors looking to expand their portfolio. Businesses capable of demonstrating compliance with safety standards and delivering a project that caters to accessibility needs for people with reduced mobility will find this tender especially suitable. Engaging in this project can not only enhance their business growth but also contribute positively to the community infrastructure in Witchford.

## Notice

Witchford Parish Council is proposing to provide new subsurface plastic geocell grids along the grassed section of Restricted Byway No2 running between The Common and a point approximately 31m west of Manor Court Road Witchford. Reinstatement of a grass seeded surface is essential to ensure that the green lane aspect of this path is retained after the works. The geocell grids supplied must comply with the British Horse Society safety requirements as detailed below and contractors will be required to demonstrate this as part of the quotation process. The purpose of this scheme is to provide a year-round path that remains usable for all including those with reduced mobility, while at the same time keeping the feel and look of a green path
