The Westcountry Rivers Trust is currently finalising the procurement process for the “Proposed Removal of Keybridge Weir - Assessment & Project Development” project, aimed at enhancing the migratory fish populations in Cornwall's rivers. This contract falls under the "Architectural and related services" category, with a total contract value of £35,000 and a minimum value of £20,000.

The schedule for the contract commenced on 20th July 2020 and is expected to end on 28th August 2020. The work will take place in the South West region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in engineering, architecture, environmental consultancy, and related services.

The project not only aims at environmental enhancements but also opens avenues for those in consulting services related to fishing, water management, and habitat restoration to contribute to a sustainable outcome that benefits both the environment and the local community.

## Notice

Update 1 - Please refer to the Tender Clarifications and the De Lank Geomorphological Review documents available to download below. Through the Water for Growth Project the Westcountry Rivers Trust will seek to improve stocks of migratory fish such as salmon and seatrout in the rivers Camel and Fowey. Funded by the European Union Structural Development Fund and in partnership with the Environment Agency, Natural England, South West Water, we will look to improve upstream and downstream fish passage, improve in river and bankside habitat, improve spawning habitats with the aim to increase numbers of juvenile salmon and seatrout. The project is about improving Cornwall's 'natural capital' (the rivers and their associated plants and animals) and in return encourage and facilitate a responsible and sustainable exploitation of this natural capital in the form of angling. We are seeking a suitably qualified and experienced consultant to undertake the Assessment and Project Development required to facilitate the removal of Keybridge Weir located in Cornwall on the De Lank River. The works seek to remove the weir to allow the re-naturalisation of this section of river.

It also incorporates a number of principles that we believe demonstrate our commitment to fulfilling our charitable objectives and ensuring the fairness and integrity of our procurement practices that demonstrate the 'most economically advantageous tender' will be selected while recognising environmental considerations and minimising the risk to WRT in terms of liability. WRT will make use of an NEC3 Professional Services Short Contract to facilitate the work.
