WINCHCOMBE TOWN COUNCIL
NOTICE FOR THE CREATION OF A NEW PARK

WINCHCOMBE PARK
GREET ROAD, WINCHCOMBE

Winchcombe town council is delighted to be able to confirm progress towards the commencement of creating Winchcombe Park. Work has begun on site with initial ground investigations being carried, this will be followed shortly by archaeological investigations. The results of both investigations will be submitted to Tewkesbury Borough Council to satisfy the final pre-commencement conditions associated with the planning permission for the new park.

Drawings illustrating the exciting proposals for the new park scheme can be viewed on the town council's website www.winchcombetowncouncil.co.uk. Drawings can also be viewed at the town council offices during office hours (Monday to Friday 09:00am to midday).

In preparation for the start of the construction phase in spring 2021, the town council has now commenced with their procurement process to shortlist suitable landscape contractors who will be invited to tender to deliver this large scale landscape project. The works will includes:

• Site clearance and earthworks to create facilities suitable for access by everyone
• Vehicle and pedestrian entrances off existing highways
• Surfaced car park and footpaths offering access throughout the year
• Activity area including a multi-use games area, wheeled sports facility, outdoor gym, petanque terrain, and aerial slide
• Street furniture such as seats and bins, fencing, lighting, and CCTV
• Extensive tree, shrub, and bulb planting, grass and wildflower seeding
• Swales and sustainable drainage features

We anticipate construction works will commence on site in March 2021 and will be completed by the end of 2021.

Closing date for enquiries will be Friday 27th November 2020 at 5:00pm
