## Summary

The procurement process titled "CWF Lot 2A - Penrith Transport Improvements" is facilitated by Cumbria County Council and aims to enhance transportation in Penrith due to recent housing developments. The project falls under the construction industry category and has a total contract value of £120,000. The tender period for this opportunity closed on 5th July 2021, with the contract set to commence on 1st October 2021 and conclude by 17th December 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the construction sector, particularly for those specialising in transport infrastructure and civil engineering. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, especially those with relevant experience in roadworks and pedestrian improvements, as the project involves specific enhancements such as pedestrian crossings and road alterations. With a successful contractor, like Metcalfe Plant Hire Ltd., already engaged, there may still be opportunities for subcontracting and collaboration on future projects in the region.

## Notice

As a result of new housing developments in Penrith, Cumbria County Council has received Section 106 monies to make transport improvements within the area.\r \r The works are to include the following schemes:\r \r * Portland Place - which includes the removal of one on-street parking space immediately north of the junction and widening Portland Place combined with narrowing of the footway to 2.5m on the eastern side of Portland Place\r * Salkeld/Inglewood Road - 'Stopping-up' of a part of Inglewood Road used as a 'rat run'. The scheme will also involve the build out of kerbs to enable improved pedestrian crossing and traffic movement.\r Currently, Cumbria County Council has received monies for the Portland Place and the Salkeld/ Inglewood Road scheme.
