Description

Swindon Borough Council invites expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced contractors to construct a new section of highway within the Wichelstowe development site.
Project Description -
These works comprise the construction of the main community street in the Wichelstowe District Centre along with all the associated utilities works, drainage (including Swales) and landscaping. The design aims to deliver a high-quality environment that reflects the role of the main street as the most active on the development in terms of pedestrians as well as accommodating all other users.
As development gets under way in this area the District Centre will become an active construction site and we are seeking a contractor who can manage and liaise with a range of developers in order to ensure safe and efficient access across the site.
It is anticipated that the value of the works will be in excess of £2million.
