Description

Bletchley and Fenny Stratford Town Council is looking for a supplier to provide a Christmas festive lighting scheme for three years from 2023 to 2025 inclusive. The scheme will comprise hired illuminations with delivery, installation and maintenance and removal included. The scheme must be delivered complying with all relevant legislation and the Milton Keynes Code of Practice, Festive Decorations on Highway/Landscape Land.

The Town Council seeks a well thought out, co-ordinated scheme that brings light and colour to the town during the festive period. Having lost the lighting in the town centre trees in recent years due to changes in regulations, it is a requirement to improve on what has been possible and to reintroduce lights in some of the tree clusters close to Stanier Square, making use of available power from existing market feeder pillars.

Bletchley & Fenny Stratford Town Council's requirements for the scheme have been broken down into several elements in the Christmas lighting project overview.

To apply, please submit information as one PDF document. Please ensure the document covers the areas required and note that links to websites as a replacement for submitting information will not be used at the selection stage.

Responses should be submitted by 12 noon, Friday 5th August 2022. Please email: tenders@bletchleyfennystratford-tc.gov.uk inserting 'Christmas Illuminations 2022' in the subject line.
