SC23093 - Dover Fastrack - Landscaping Works EOI
Main contract details
The Council are seeking a potential contractor to carry out landscaping works required for the Dover Fastrack Project. These construction scheme works are not expected to be completed until approximately December 2023. Access could be provided from 1 January 2024 with works required to be completed within the winter planting season of February/March 2024.
The majority of the route to be planted is bus only, so whilst some traffic management will be required for works close to the carriageway, traffic flows are expected to be light. Allowances should also be made to manage pedestrians/cyclists along the shared footway/cycleway and also users of the public right of way that runs along the base of the embankment.
A five-year aftercare and maintenance regime will be required after planting to adhere with a planning condition associated with the planning consent for the scheme.
Scheme approval will be sought on the week commencing the 12 June 2023. Should the decision be to procure these works, a procurement process will commence following the closure of this Expression of Interest Period. Location drawings showing the areas and type of planting have been attached as part of this EOI. Bills of quantities and Scheme Drawings are being drafted prior to release following the EOI.
The range of the works is between £250,000.00 - £300,000.00.
