Description
The "Folkestone - A Brighter Future" scheme seeks to 'level up' Folkestone's town centre by supporting active travel, creating a high-quality environment that supports civic pride and reverses years of disparity in investment by transforming the fortunes of the towns primary retail areas.
The requirement of this contract of works is to design and manufacture the superstructure of a pedestrian footbridge to connect Guildhall Street North to Shellons Street.
A footbridge is proposed to link Guildhall Street North and Shellons Street more-directly near the location of its pedestrian crossing, to re-establish the link which was severed by the construction of the A2033 link (Foresters Way and Shellons Street). Previously an earthwork ramp solution was considered for providing this link but due to challenges associated with this proposal, such as the impact on existing services and the level of visual intrusion it would cause, the footbridge structure was proposed by AECOM as it is considered to be a better solution.
The superstructure contractor will need to work closely with Aecom (design consultant), who are responsible for designing the substructure for the bridge to ensure that the design of the superstructure and substructure are coordinated. Two Agreement in Principle (AIP) submissions will need to be made for the KCC Structures Technical Approval Process (TAP), Aecom (as the
substructure Designer) will prepare the submission for the substructure, but the superstructure contractor will need to prepare the submission for the superstructure. It will be essential for Aecom and the superstructure contractor to work closely to ensure that the submissions are made at the same time and are co-ordinated.
