## Summary

Moray Council is seeking contractors for the "Landslip repair - Meikle Cantlay" project, aimed at addressing a landslip approximately 4.5 km east of Keith. This procurement falls within the category of public works and is currently in the Tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 14 June 2021. The contract is valued at £683,000 and requires contractors to submit their bids electronically. The location for the work is in Elgin, Moray, and the project is being conducted under an open procedure as per public procurement regulations.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for construction and engineering firms, particularly those with experience in geotechnical remediation and watercourse work. To qualify, bidders need to demonstrate a proven track record with relevant projects and meet the financial criteria, including a minimum yearly turnover of £1 million over the past three years. Contractors that meet these requirements, especially those accustomed to working on complex environmental and structural projects, would be well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

Repair to a landslip at Meikle Cantlay, approximately 4.5 km east of Keith, the A95 has been cut into the slope on the northern edge of the flood plain, at approximately 15 m from the toe of the slope. Figure 1 shows the site location. The Grid reference for the centre of the site is NJ 21136 64788. There is a sharp, almost 90-degree bend in the River Isla at this location, after which the river channel is aligned along the toe of the slope parallel to the road for approximately 100 m as it flows under the Bridge of Cantlay. A slope failure has occurred on the lower slope adjacent to the 90-degree bend, between the road and the River Isla, immediately upstream of the Bridge of Cantlay, following a period of prolonged wet weather and increased flows in October 2019. Moray Council have closed the west-bound lane to restrict vehicle traffic across the top of the slope. There are temporary traffic management measures in place to enforce this. The overall site covers approximately 0.13 hectares.
