## Notice

The Foundation for Common Land (FCL) on behalf of the National Trust, are seeking to appoint a contractor to deliver capital works on Brant Fell, Sedbergh. We require a total length of 2850m of footpaths on the uplands fell as part of the NFM works delivered via Our Upland Commons NLHF Project. The footpaths are already in existence but require remedial works and some cross drains/bunds/culverts to encourage the water off the paths and down into wetland areas/gills. The contractor will be bound by NTs CDM regs and should be a member of Constructionline. Evidence of these two elements will be sought. There is an existing Project Director and Project Management contractor in place who will manage the works on behalf of FCL. Please read the RP1 Document carefully in relation to the 'scope of the contract'. There will be a site walkover FRIDAY 28TH JUNE, 11am - 1pm. This allows any interested party to consider access routes, the wear and tear of the existing paths and ask technical questions to the project team. Details are in the RP1 Document. Closing date for submissions is Thursday 4th July Midday 12.00 pm. Further details on the Opportunity can be found in the "NT RFP1_footpath management_2", available via Proactis.
