This project aims to establish a 610-metre crushed limestone path along three sections of the footpath, particularly addressing areas most affected during winter months. The tender period will close on 20 April 2021, and the contract is set to commence on 8 August 2021, concluding by 31 October 2021. The tender follows an open procedure and has a value of £35,000, with a minimum threshold of £30,000 for bids from interested parties. This tender provides a significant opportunity for local businesses and contractors focusing on construction and landscaping, especially those with experience in paving and footpath repairs. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process is suited for companies that can deliver specialised works within the stipulated timeframe while ensuring compliance with environmental standards. Businesses that excel in project management and sustainable practices will have a competitive advantage in securing this contract. ## Notice Project subject to environmental permit being issued by the Environment Agency. Funding subject to successful application to the England Coast Path Establishment Fund and a grant being awarded by Natural England. The England Coast Path (ECP) is England's newest National Trail that will allow public access along the entire length of England's coastline. In total, we plan to lay a 610 metre x 2 metre-wide, crushed limestone path along three sections of the footpath that are the worst affected during the winter months. Timing: This project has to be undertaken when ground conditions are firm and suggest implementing at the end of August beginning of September 2021. This will also allow time for environmental permits to be issued.
