This project falls under the industry category of public works and involves the creation of a 1,140-metre long path and cycleway featuring viewpoints and seating areas. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a call for competition expected to be released on 28 September 2018. Construction is anticipated to commence in February 2019 and conclude by the end of December 2019. This tender presents significant opportunities for contractors specializing in civil engineering and public realm works. Businesses that can offer expertise in path construction, landscaping, and environmental management will be particularly well-suited for this project. The involvement of various landowners and the environmentally sensitive nature of the area also opens avenues for companies experienced in collaborative projects and compliance with ecological regulations. ## Notice The Council is planning to appoint an experienced contractor to construct the waterfront path and cycle way with all the associated works. The path is approximately 1,140m long with a variety of view-points and seating areas along the route. It is intended to be a high quality, accessible and visually attractive link between Dumbarton town centre and its Rock and Castle and to become a destination where residents and visitors can enjoy recreational activities such as walking and cycling and enjoy the outlook over the river and views to the Rock and Castle. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The great potential of the Dumbarton waterfront has been recognised by the Council and the community and it became a focus for the town's regeneration.
