Description

Current status / Background

The overall design and installation of the interment vaults shall accord to the general block arrangement and the accommodation provided for and in compliance with the Planning Consent permitted by the London Borough of Barnet together with conditions set by Barnet Council.
Suppliers are invited to submit detailed designs for the interment vaults and enclosure proposals for the development for Block 2A as part of their tender. The proposals are to include for all retaining walls, including foundations and concrete rafts to support the vaults, together with ramps and stairs (including high visibility/contrasting colours anti-slip treads and tactile paving where appropriate), stainless steel guardings, resin bound floor or other approved floor finishes to paths all as a complete package.
