The contract, associated with the UK region UKE44, was successfully awarded to TILHILL FORESTRY LIMITED and was signed on 1st June 2026, with work scheduled from 8th June to 11th September 2026. The project's primary focus is under the industry category of "Fencing, railing and safety equipment installation work," supported by the Trees for Climate grant programme, aiming to establish a 16.47-hectare native woodland.

The contract was awarded to a large-scale supplier, demonstrating the potential scope for similar businesses to engage in future procurement opportunities with public authorities.
