This procurement falls under the "Drainage and surface works" category. The project will involve surfacing a 1000m track to aid public access and forestry operations. The work is to be completed by mid-October 2024. Natural England used an open procedure for this tender, with a contract value up to £49,999. Key dates include the submission deadline on 30th August 2024 and the contract award date on 17th September 2024 to Sage Enviro Ltd. The contract period is set from 7th October to 11th October 2024. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in forestry, landscaping, and construction, especially SMEs and VCSEs, due to the procurement's open nature and suitability requirements. Companies with expertise in drainage and surface works would find this contract ideal for showcasing their capabilities and expanding their portfolio with a notable project. The involvement in public infrastructure projects like this can enhance business reputability and open further opportunities in similar government contracts. ## Notice The main bridleway track (1000m) running through Ham Street Woods National Nature Reserve and SSSI to the south of Ashford in Kent (managed by Natural England) becomes very wet and muddy in winter due to the clay substrate. The aim of this project is to surface the Right of Way to provide for better public access and to facilitate forestry operations. The works are likely to take up to 3 weeks and need to be completed by the end of October at the very latest, but preferably starting by mid-September, before wet conditions set in.
