This open procurement process, categorised under works, is aimed at restoring a damaged section of the Little Yarrow river and its floodplain. The tender is currently in the active stage, with submissions due by 17 July 2020. The project will create approximately 1,270 metres of meandering river channel over a 12-hectare site, transforming the area into natural wetlands and native woodlands, contributing to environmental protection efforts. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in environmental restoration, civil engineering, landscaping, and related sectors. Companies that specialise in river restoration, habitat creation, or any work associated with environmental protection would be well-suited to compete for this project. By engaging in this initiative, businesses can not only contribute to sustainable practices but can also leverage potential future contracts for similar environmental projects within the region. ## Notice To restore a straightened part of the Little Yarrow, which is a tributary of the River Tweed, flowing from the surrounding hills into Loch of the Lowes.
