The requirement is for the refurbished path to be accessible to people with limited mobility, wheelchair users and people with sensory impairments. The path width shall be such that there is room for two wheelchairs, or two people, side by side. Any gradient steeper than 1:20 is considered a ramp and therefore the path should be adjusted accordingly. The Construction Contractor shall temporarily remove any existing park benches and waste bins away from the area of work and subsequently replace them in suitable locations, to be agreed with WPC. The Construction Contractor shall remove the vegetation and topsoil to widen the path to 2.5 metre width (the topsoil is to be stockpiled on site for later use). The Contractor shall break out a trench adjacent to the existing path to create the wider path. The arisings shall be taken off site by the Contractor who shall comply with all the necessary Environmental Requirements necessary for the scope of work including Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) testing for generated material if exported. The path and any ramps should have a slight cross-fall to shed water. However, cambers present difficulties for both wheelchair users and people with visual impairments. Therefore, this is to be minimize. Surfaces should be well constructed and should give firm, non-slip, level access. Concrete edging is to be provided along the whole length of the path. On completion of the path works the Contractor shall make good all of the grass areas that have been damaged to an acceptable state to be agreed with the WPC or their representative.
