The procurement method is an open procedure with a contract value of £15,000. The deadline for tender submission is January 5, 2024, with the contract period scheduled to start on January 22, 2024, and end on March 31, 2024. This opportunity falls under the services category and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This tender presents a business growth opportunity for companies specializing in drainage systems and feasibility studies. With a focus on sustainable drainage solutions, businesses in the construction and environmental sectors would be well-suited to compete. The project location is in the South East region of the United Kingdom, providing a chance for local businesses to showcase their expertise in delivering high-quality solutions for public access infrastructure. ## Notice The South Downs Way National Trail is a 100 mile long-distance path that spans the entire length of the South Downs National Park. It is a mainly off-road route that is comprised of public rights of way and is well used by walkers, cyclists, and equestrians all-year round. We have identified a section of path that has deteriorated from heavy use and surface water erosion. This section requires repair and drainage improvements to maintain the high standard of access along the National Trail. This section of Trail has public bridleway status yet also serves private vehicular access for several residents and for agricultural operations. A feasibility study for a sustainable draininge solution that will integrate with our proposed surface repairs is required, in order to undertake consultation with stakeholders prior to implementation.
